EO Product Chains

EO Veracity activities are focused on selected EO product chains, to analyse and characterise the end-to-end EO data supply chain. This will allow us to characterise the nature of potential interferences in the supply chain, and understand the expected consequences. The selected EO product chains are:

  • Sentinel-2: data acquisition & processing (L0 L2A) to dissemination
  • SEonSE: near real-time maritime situational awareness
  • FloodSENS: AI-powered flood mapping
  • EUGENIUS: Border Permeability Mapping

When assessing these product chains, six elements will be investigated:

  1. Information generation: data collection, content creation, and authorship
  2. Verification and Validation: fact checking and quality control
  3. Packaging and Structure: formant and metadata creation
  4. Distribution: publishing, platforms, and network transmission
  5. Archiving and Preservation: storage and retrieval
  6. Ethical and Legal Considerations: copyright and IP, privacy and security, and bias and objectivity
