SUMMARY:Members Webinar Series - Implementation of the Copernicus Services Framework Agreement
DESCRIPTION:The relationship and cooperation with the EEA has continued to flourish through the contract EuroGeographics has with eGEOS. The formal partnership agreement\, Copernicus Services Framework Agreement\, was signed `by EuroGeographics and the EEA at the start of the year\, and we are now working hard to implement these agreements and fulfilling the objective of ensuring your authoritative data is used by the Copernicus services. This webinar provided you a refresher on the Copernicus Services Framework Agreement as well as information on the Annexes which cover data provision to the Emergency Mapping\, Land and Security Services. The EEA  also presented a number of case studies to show how your data is being used and how vital and important it is they have access to the official data sources. There was also an opportunity to ask questions specifically around any barriers you might be facing which prevents your organisation from signing the agreement\, annexes or providing the actual data even if the license is in place. \nThe agenda was as follows: \n\n10.30 – 10.50 – Copernicus Services Agreement and Annexes – Sallie Payne\, EuroGeographics\n10.50 – 11.10 – The use of MNCA data in the Copernicus Services – Jose Miguel Rubio Iglesias\, European Environment Agency\n11.10 – 11.30 – Questions and Answers session \n\n\nWebinar Recording (Opens in YouTube) \n

SUMMARY:Workshop for NMCAs - European Core Data & Services for European Data Spaces
DESCRIPTION:GeoE3-project\, Location Innovation Hub\, EuroGeographics and EuroSDR are organising a workshop together for European NMCAs. It will take place in Brussels as a physical event. \nLocation data has a huge potential – but we need to take the next step together to deploy this potential. We need to integrate location data with other data\, work on data interoperability and improve data quality. Data must also be available through API’s. \nThe workshop focused on: \n\nHow could NMCAs’ data and services become a part of the European data spaces?\nHow could we work together improving data management\, services\, and data integration with other data?\nHow can we take European data strategy with High Value Datasets into consideration and how to create Core Data Services for European data spaces based on High Value Datasets?\n\nIn this workshop we: \n\nshowed viable and interesting examples from the GeoE3-project and our platform (geoe3platform.eu) on how to establish data integration and improve data management and services\,\ndiscussed about establishing a stronger European Core Data Provider network together\,\nintroduced how Location Innovation Hub created in Finland as part of the European Digital Innovation Hubs could be used as a facilitator for European Core Data Provider network\,\nlooked at financing opportunities (Green Deal and other Digital Europe funding opportunities) and what is needed next: how to address for example Gaia-X\, data security and how to engage other communities.\n\nOur goals were: \n\nTo enlarge and develop European Core Data Provider Network\nTo support creating a European/National Dataspaces\nTo discuss how we could proceed together\n\nThe agenda of the workshop is available here. \nThe presentations of the workshop can be found here below: \n\n\n\n#\nPresentation\nPresenter\n\n\n1\nA European Strategy for data – Shaping Europe’s digital future\nJordi Escriu\, Joint Research Centre\, European Commission\n\n\n2\nNMCAs and European Data Spaces\nJarkko Koskinen\, Joint Research Center\, European Commission\n\n\n3\nImplementation of data strategy: data management\nMorten Borrebaek\, Norwegian Mapping\nAuthority\n\n\n4\nImplementation of data strategy: data services\nMikko Visa\, Finnish Meteorological Institute Jari Reini\, National Land Survey of Finland\n\n\n5\nImplementation of data strategy: data integration\nLassi Lehto\, Finnish Geospatial Research\nInstitute\n\n\n6\nEuropean core data provider network\nAntti Jakobsson\, LIH\n\n\n7\nIntroduction to Green Deal Space\nDelphine Miramont\, EARSC\n\n\n8\nWorkshop and future discussions – EU Green deal data spaces and the NMCA’s role\nAnniina Lundvall\, NLS\n\n\n9\nLocation for European Data Spaces – Introduction to project concept\nVeera Mustonen\, Spinverse\n\n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n\n\n\n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Understanding CORDA: Facilitating NMCAs role as Data Providers for Copernicus
DESCRIPTION:CORDA (https://corda.eea.europa.eu/) represents the gateway to authoritative geospatial reference data from official sources such as National Mapping and Cadastral Agencies (NMCAs) for Copernicus. It is a convenient single entry point in the complex landscape of national and subnational data provision\, offering Copernicus service providers an index of URLs linking to datasets at varying levels of regional organizations\, all while maintaining a common language and a standardized method of data organization. \nCORDA was launched in 2015 as part of a major investment by the European Environment Agency (EEA) in coordinating cross-cutting access to In Situ Data by Copernicus. Access to the platform is restricted to the Copernicus Entrusted Entities\, its service providers\, and the actual in situ data providers\, and it hosts more than 300 active users and more than 1800 datasets from nearly 300 data providers. \nNational Mapping and Cadastral Agencies (NMCAs) and other data providers play a crucial role in achieving optimal reference data coverage that meets the user requirements of Copernicus Entrusted Entities. To this end\, the recently revised partnership agreement between the EEA and the EuroGeographics will facilitate increased availability and access to essential geospatial data for the Emergency\, Land and Security Services. \n EuroGeographics organised this webinar to present a set of CORDA user guidelines to NMCAs in order to facilitate the implementation of this agreement. \nThe draft agenda was as follows: \n\nIntroduction – Sallie Payne\, EuroGeographics\nUnderstanding CORDA – Jose Miguel Rubio\, European Environment Agency\, Olga López de Turiso Martínez & Iñaki Diaz de Cerio Paniagua\, CORDA team\nQ&A using Sli.do\n\nWebinar Recording (Opens in YouTube) \n
