9th Workshop - Joint SALGEE and LSA-SAF Workshop
EUMETSAT HQ, Darmstadt, Germany 25 - 26 November 2024
The workshop focused on the application of EUMETSAT land-surface data in the field of vegetation and drought monitoring. Users of EUMETSAT land-surface data working in either research or operational services were invited to present their studies and/or operational applications. EUMETSAT and the relevant SAFs also presented their existing and planned products and services.
The Workshop provided a platform to discuss current and future user needs to consider in the evolution of EUMETSAT products and services.
The agenda and presentations are available:
Ultimately, the workshop aimed to identify co-development projects to support interested users in jointly developing operational applications using EUMETSAT data, bridging the gap between research and operations.
