SUMMARY:Open-Earth-Monitor Global Workshop 2023
DESCRIPTION:Organized by OpenGeoHub foundation in collaboration with Eurac Research\, the Open-Earth-Monitor Global Workshop 2023 will bring together European and global actors in the field of open-source Earth Observation applications in policy\, business\, research and for society. \nThis international event will connect project partners\, including data and environmental researchers\, public and private sector developers\, EU decision- and policymakers\, representatives from global institutions\, the business sector and civil society to discuss and test solutions to the greatest challenges in geospatial applications. \nThrough five days featuring international keynote speakers\, scientific presentations\, discussions\, and demonstrative workshops\, the participants of the OEMC Global Workshop 2023 will explore valuable opportunities and establish tangible collaborations to improve geospatial research and application products in open-source. \nVisit the official page \n\n\n\nOpen Earth Observation and Machine Learning technology to support the European Green Deal\n\n\n\n\n\nEarth Observations and geospatial data —and their derived information— play crucial roles in monitoring regional\, national and global environmental and climate targets proposed by the ambitious European Green Deal. Practitioners and decision-makers are therefore in need of accessible\, science-based tools for timely and informed decisions as well as for long-term planning\, progress tracking and transparent evaluation processes. \nOpen-Earth-Monitor project’s main aim is to directly support the implementation of the European Green Deal\, the European Digital Transition\, the EuroGEO (Europe’s part of the Group on Earth Observations) and overall the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). How? By producing and integrating a range of open-source\, data-based and user-friendly tools to monitor European and global environmental trends\, and for ecosystem services accounting in constant collaboration with user communities. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCall for abstracts\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorkshops\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you have developed (or are in the process of developing) a free and open-source project and product related to EO and other geospatial technologies that could support decision-making and the achievement of the EU Green Deal\, or are part of a similar project\, we invite you to participate by sending your proposal for a workshop. This will be an occasion to present\, discuss and gather feedback directly from potential users of your products\, making tools and data more accessible and usable. \n\n\n\n\nOral presentations and posters\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Open-Earth-Monitor Global Workshop 2023 aims to become one of the flagship events for the open-source geospatial community in Europe. While the focus of the workshops is open-source software and methods in support of European policies and decision-making\, we wish to provide a stage to a broader variety of knowledge and experiences\, where new methods\, tools and approaches are shared and novel collaborations are established. \nSome of the expected topics will be the research and application of geospatial technologies in various fields including governance\, industries and in the public sector. We will focus also on the role of user communities and businesses in research and advancements in the open-source EO and Machine Learning technologies to achieve both digital and green transitions. \nDeadline: 15th April 2023 \nSubmit via Pretalx

SUMMARY:Hackathons: Land cover mapping and machine learning + Global-FAPAR
DESCRIPTION:The first two hackathons of the OEMC project challenge young researchers to map land cover class using machine learning and to model FAPAR at a high spatial resolution\n\nThese are the two first of a series of hackathons that will be organized by the OEMC project during its development in order to interact with young researchers.\n\n\nThe winners of each challenge will receive an invitation to present their results at the OEMC Global Workshop in Bolzano\, Italy\, processing credits in the Open EO platform and\, a lifetime subscription to PeerJ Journal.\n\nThe Open-Earth-Monitor (OEMC) project launches its first two hackathons and invites young researchers\, students and members of the GIS community to explore machine learning solutions for land cover mapping. Similarly\, the second hackathon will focus on modeling FAPAR using data-driven approaches. The events will take place online from September 1st to September 15th 2023 and will be hosted by Leandro Parente from OpenGeoHub (OGH) and co-organized by the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA)\, CREAF\, GILAB\, the Institute for Geoinformatics of the Münster University (IFGI)\, Terrasigna and\, Eurac Research. \nSince a good machine learning challenge needs to be based on a high quality input dataset\, the participants of the first hackathon will work with ground-truth data provided by the LUCAS Survey\, funded by the European Commission. Using data about land cover\, land use\, irrigation management and structural elements of European landscapes\, the participants will be asked to map these landscapes using satellite images and machine learning models. The participant with the highest accuracy wins the challenge. As of the second hackathon\, Global-FAPAR (Fraction of Absorbed Photosynthetic Active Radiation)\, participants will face a regression problem\, i.e. modeling FAPAR at high spatial resolution using data driven approaches and biophysical variables. \nYou can join us and participate in one of the two challenges by filling out the following registration form. These two hackathons are an opportunity for participants to connect with cutting edge developments and experts in the field of machine learning. It’s also a good chance to improve\, share knowledge and build a creditable background within Earth Observation applications. \nThe winners will be awarded with the chance to assist and present their results at the OEMC Global Workshop taking place in Bolzano\, Italy from 4-6 of October. This international event brings together European and global policy-makers\, business managers\, researchers and civil society to discuss solutions to the greatest challenges in the field of open-source Earth Observation\, geospatial applications and state of the art tools to monitor our environment. The winner will also have the opportunity to use the OpenEO Platform\, a large-scale cloud platform able to access and analyze billions of satellite images and other Earth Observation data. \n  \nJOIN NOW!\nDataset Access \nLand Cover Mapping EU-LUCAS: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.8306554 \nGlobal-FAPAR: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.8306613 \nKaggle Competitions \nLand Cover Mapping EU-LUCAS: https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/oemc-hackathon-global-fapar-modeling \nGlobal-FAPAR: https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/oemc-hackathon-eu-land-cover-classification \n  \nLocal environment \nhttps://gitlab.com/leal.parente/geo-snippets/-/blob/main/hackathon/oemc_hackathon_2023.ipynb \nKaggle notebooks \nhttps://www.kaggle.com/code/leandroparente/oemc-hackathon-2023 \nGoogle colab \nhttps://colab.research.google.com/drive/1zMZ0x5VAgzPjkbsbpUtWnx8FzoLQezvK \n  \nTimeline \n\nSeptember 1\, 2023 – Start date.\nSeptember 15\, 2023 – Final submission deadline.\nSeptember 19\, 2023 – Organization will contact the winners.\nOctober 4\, 2023 – Official announcement of the winners in the OEMC Global Workshop\n\nDeadlines are at 11:59 PM CET on each day\, unless stated otherwise. \nOrganizers can adjust the timeline if needed

SUMMARY:European Geosciences Union (EGU) General Assembly 2023
DESCRIPTION:IIASA will be present at the General Assembly 2023 of the European Geosciences Union (EGU)\, which is held at the Austria Center Vienna (ACV) in Vienna\, Austria and online\, from 23–28 April 2023. The assembly is open to the scientists of all nations. It’s format will feature three presentation styles\, including poster\, oral and PICO (Presenting Interactive COntent) presentations – which are composed of a short two minute presentation and a longer interactive discussion. \nSteffen Fritz\, IIASA Strategic Initiatives Program Director and researcher in the Novel Data Ecosystems Research Group of the Advancing Systems Analysis Program\, and its team\, will make a presentation entitled “Opening up FAIR in-situ land-use reference data: current gaps\, obstacles and future challenge”. The presentation will close by making the audience aware of the LUCKINet consortium\, which is trying to make more reference data openly accessible and to build a consistent global land-use change dataset as well as work done on in-situ data within the EU LAMASUS and OEMC project. You can find information about it on the official page. The poster used during the presentation will be made available after the session.
