Making Earth Observation FAIR - Terrawatch

This episode features Dr. Nadine Alameh, the CEO of Open Geospatial Consortium, an international organization dedicated to making geospatial data Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR) through consensus-based standards, collaborative innovation projects, and industry partnerships.

The episode addresses the question: As more and more satellites with a variety of sensors are launched, but is all that data really useful if they are not accessible, usable or fusable?

Dr. Alameh shares her story, what OGC does, the ongoing gold rush in EO, standards and interoperability, the role of the private sector in developing that and more.
