Copernicus and AI
1 like114 views
Copernicus is the European Union's Earth observation program that provides free and open data and information about our planet through six services. It operates a fleet of Sentinel satellites that monitor land, oceans, atmosphere, climate change and emergencies. Copernicus data is accessible through Data and Information Access Services and is being used in applications across many sectors. The EU is promoting the use of Copernicus data and artificial intelligence through funding opportunities to develop new technologies and solutions.
