How can cloud native technologies transform the way we publish, access, and process research data in the Natural and Engineering Sciences? On 1 April 2026, we invite you to join the CLOUD-NES Symposium for a full day of exchange, inspiration, and collaboration! Together, we will explore how cloud-native approaches can make NES research data more accessible, scalable, and reproducible, and what is needed to accelerate adoption across the community. Geospatial data will be used as a case study.
After two inspiring meetings in the past year, we are excited to invite you to the third edition of the ITC - 52°North - ifgi Collaboration Meeting! This half-day event is designed to bring together researchers and staff from our three institutions to exchange ideas, share recent developments, and explore new opportunities for collaboration.
The meeting aims to bring together researchers and research supporters of ITC and 52°North for exchange and discussions. With measures, strategies, citizen involvement, and governance processes for climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction in mind, the symposium will touch upon research data infrastructures, spatial information infrastructures, co-design and co-development of information products, Open Science practices, urban digital twins, ML/AI in Earth Sciences, enabling real-time sensor data flows, and standardisation of time series data access.
After more than 3 years of operation, we are curious how the platform has performed and how it can be further improved. Join us for the Geospatial Computing Platform Users Meeting to share your experience, exchange your ideas, and voice your needs!
The aims to initiate a collaboration between ITC and OpenGeoHub on production of joint open geospatial datasets and software. It also aims to provide a plaftorm to discuss the needs and challenges of open geodata development and sharing.
The mini symposium aims to initiate a collaboration between ITC and the eScience Center on research software development by bringing the research and development communities of both institutions together to enable transfer of technical and practical know-how through presentations, open discussions, and networking activities.
