We are a key player in the Copernicus programme, the Earth observation component of the European Union's space programme, which offers quality information on climate change (Copernicus Climate Change Service), atmospheric composition (Copernicus Atmospheric Monitoring Service), flood and fire hazards (Copernicus Management Service emergency situations of the Copernicus program), and through the EU initiative Destination Earth we are developing prototypes of digital twins of the Earth.
