The Marine User Days will take place on 5-6 November 2024 in Lisbon, Portugal.
This Marine User Days event is hosted by EUMETSAT. Partners include the European Commission, European Space Agency, the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts, Mercator Ocean International and the Copernicus Marine Service.
The Marine User Days will bring together existing and prospective users from across the diverse marine user community. Focusing on the data provided by the European organisations involved in the Copernicus programme and their role in oceanography and marine applications, the event will act as a showcase for use cases. It is also a networking opportunity for users across the value chain, and will feature a workshop to engage with user needs and feedback.
Emphasis will be placed on data from across the value chain including satellite data, derived products, climate data records and their applications. Copernicus contributing mission data from EUMETSAT’s meteorological missions and data from the satellite application facility specialising in ocean and sea ice will broaden the scope.
The Marine User Days will be open to participation from across the community including those involved at the policy and governance level, academia and research and commercial entities. Attendees will benefit from the opportunity to present their use cases to the wider community of users and potential customers, but also to the European Commission and Copernicus entrusted entity representatives. They will have to opportunity to discuss their use cases and needs with the latter.
The workshop is open for any existing or prospective users who wish to attend.
Registration is now open, with a deadline on 10 October.
