Space Data For National Resilience
London Climate Action Week Afternoon Workshop
Our networking lunch is being generously sponsored by Space4Climate members Planet and external participants will join us. The afternoon is an outcomes-focused workshop for members and end users of satellite data – the same successful format as last year’s S4C Conference.
The programme will feature an introductory panel of presentations: ‘The role of data from space in resilience solutions today and in the future’.
It will be followed by a number of real-world challenges / problem statements posed by potential end users who want to know whether space-based data applications can offer solutions and how to access them.
Before the event, you will have the chance to choose which breakout session you want to join depending on the challenge / problem statement that best matches your expertise. Key ideas and ideas for potential next steps will be captured by facilitators and shared back in the main conference room.
After the workshop a summary report will be shared with all attendees and invitations to express interest in pursuing one or more potential next steps.
Please note: The conference is open to Space4Climate members only (check if your organisation is a member).
