Introducing Open Atlas: Accelerating Earth Observation Algorithms for the Water-Food Nexus

In the rapidly evolving field of Earth Observation, the need for innovative algorithms to tackle complex challenges, such as those related to the water and food nexus, is paramount. Open Atlas, an open-source algorithm registry, aims to address this need by providing a platform for researchers to develop, share, and collaborate on cutting-edge algorithms. By harnessing the power of Earth Observation data, particularly from sources like the Copernicus satellite missions, Open Atlas strives to accelerate the development of new tools and applications that can significantly advance our understanding of the water-food nexus.

Open Atlas: Empowering Earth Observation Researchers

Open Atlas is a European remote sensing platform born out of the Triple Helix model of innovation. It brings together stakeholders from academia, industry, and government in a collaborative ecosystem that fosters capacity building, knowledge transfer, and support in funding applications. By leveraging the expertise and resources of the food-water nexus triple helix partners, Open Atlas aims to drive industry transformation in the water-food nexus. This platform is a hub for researchers and algorithm developers to access, contribute to, and utilise a growing library of algorithms that can address critical challenges in Earth Observation.
