Space4Green: Partners' Meeting (Seville, Spain)
The Space4Green Horizon project was officially initiated with a partner meeting held in Seville, Spain. During this meeting, the partners engaged in discussions covering various aspects of project management and technical matters. They reached a consensus on essential factors for ensuring the project's seamless and effective execution.
Representing Omnia at the meeting were Mr. Andreas Angeli, the Managing Director, and Dr. Maria Doula, the Strategic Partner.
Space4Green is “a Business-to-Business (B2B) platform for digital data sharing supporting automated verification of data trustworthiness, including time, position, and identity associated with the data handling process.” This means creating a way of developing automatic transactions that are trustworthy so that information, goods, services, and more can be safely transferred between stakeholders much faster. The project is based on the idea of combining the European Space Technology (Galileo OSNMA and Copernicus Service) with blockchain, mobile platforms, and the Internet of Things, so we can obtain verified and trustworthy information to help the environment and enable a safe platform for transactions.
The idea is that Space4Green will have a powerful impact on the agriculture industry, making it more sustainable and eco-friendlier. The use of Earth Observation via satellites is going to help farmers in things like keeping track of crops and livestock and providing land data and projections about rainfall. This project can also help in other areas such as fishing where it can help with monitoring sustainable fishing quotas and making sure the common fisheries policy is being followed. Thus, contributing to developing new cutting-edge SATCOM applications and making technological advances in the agricultural industry.
