WEkEO 4 Coastal Interactions

Workshop Summary

The Copernicus WEkEO Service organised a two-day workshop to increase user awareness of the coastal areas, related issues and conservation techniques specific to this subject. The aim of this workshop is to share applications of the Copernicus WEkEO Service products in ecosystem monitoring studies and to focus on the main challenges faced by the coastal regions . The workshop will cover a number of related topics, ranging from floods, health issues, turbidity and others. 

 A practical session (Day 2) will be dedicated to live demonstrations of the use of the data using: 
  1. Jupyter Notebooks,
