Summary:
"The EU Space Programme collects, provides and relies on satellite data, including earth observations, environmental monitoring, meteorology, geospatial information and mobility data. Such data is generally classified as high-value data as it provides important benefits for society, the environment and the economy. Recognising their importance, the EU is committed to making these datasets increasingly accessible by making them open and free.
This data story uses open data to illustrate the breadth of information derived from satellites and the multitude of systems powered by satellite data. In addition, it dives into how satellite data supports navigation systems, enables high-speed connectivity and helps us track climate change...."
