Creating Value for Sweden Through Earth Observation and Collaboration

Earth Observation (EO) data is an essential resource for tackling societal, environmental, and industrial challenges. Through initiatives such as the Swedish Space Data Lab (Rymddatalabbet), RISE drives progress in leveraging EO data for both immediate societal benefit and long-term sustainable development.

This talk will delve into RISE's cutting-edge work in integrating artificial intelligence (AI), edge computing, and edge learning to optimize EO data use. Practical examples will highlight projects focused on nature-based solutions for climate change adaptation and mitigation, including biodiversity monitoring, smart agriculture, and urban greening initiatives.

Discover how RISE fosters innovation through collaborative platforms and open calls, driving the development of commercializable solutions from Earth Observation data.

These efforts focus on advancing scalable EO data processing while driving industrial innovation and societal impact. This talk will showcase how RISE and its partners leverage cutting-edge technologies and collaborations to unlock EO data's transformative potential, foster commercialization, and position Sweden as a leader in sustainable innovation and the green transition.
