Tartu Observatory invites all those interested in remote sensing to the web-based information seminar of the Estonian Satellite Data Center ESThub on March 23 from 12:00 to 14:00 Estonian time (11:00 to 13:00 CET). Working language of the event is English.
The aim of the seminar is to introduce the possibilities of ESTHub and to share the experience of using remote sensing data in science and teaching as well in the development of services necessary for the state. ESThub was opened in the Estonian Land Board in cooperation with the European Space Agency in 2019 and offers services to companies, the public sector, research and development institutions and academy.
The development of ESTHub in the framework of the Coperncius program will enable the expansion of active dialogue with users and promote national innovation actions the international space and downstream community.
