This session is organized on October 30th, 2020, 1-3 PM UTC by the AIR Centre Networking Friday. It will focus on pan-continental African marine initiatives using EO data, technologies and services in support of African sustainable development. 



In the marine and coastal domains, the GMES-Africa initiative provides four consortia around the continent that are developing and implementing a variety of services, including the provision of oceanographic products, fisheries and aquaculture support, coastal ecosystem monitoring and maritime security.

As a joint initiative between the African and European Unions, there is strong emphasis on realising value from the data, information, expertise and know-how offered by the Copernicus programme. The South African National Oceans and Coastal Information Management System will also be presented.

The session will present a variety of earth-observation based services from around the continent – services that focus on providing actionable information in the marine and coastal domain to a variety of stakeholders. These services, whilst all focusing on providing knowledge-based decision making tools, have different regional priorities and approaches to user co-design and service delivery. The session will also include a substantial guided Q&A session to further gather user perspectives and needs.
