Projet I-DEAL (Horizon Europe, appel à projets 2024)
Action : Staff Exchanges
Panel : Environment and Geosciences
Statut du projet : SIGNED

Geospatial data are nowadays collected with various sensors (hyperspectral cameras, LiDAR, etc.) and platforms (airplanes, drones, ground robots) and processed with advanced methods (e.g. photogrammetry, artificial intelligence - AI, etc.) in order to deliver analyses- and decision-ready thematic products. These products can be used, among others, for environmental monitoring, sustainable use of space, spatial analyses, simulation and predictions. The I-DEAL project aims to foster new skills and strengthen human resources performing a series of secondments to develop new, unconventional approaches for geospatial data acquisition, processing, verification and usage to support the European Green Deal actions. New methods based on AI, robotics, oblique aerial cameras, LiDAR and hyperspectral sensors, and combining ground, airborne and satellite data for the monitoring of various ecosystems (atmosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere and built environment) will be investigated, tested and applied in various scenarios. Investigations will tackle different Green Deal ambitions, sharing and exchanging complementary expertise to boost geospatial technologies and improve Earth monitoring and climate change mitigation. Scientific events and transversal training activities will also be organized and offered to support career developments. The integration of I-DEAL intersectoral aspects will allow researchers to see, understand and exploit private company approaches or mapping agency methodologies; at the same time, non-academic people and service providers will exchange with and benefit from R&D activities and in-house products. The I-DEAL consortium consists of 14 partners from 11 countries, with practitioners and commercial representatives, as well as scientists with diverse educational backgrounds, such as technical, engineering, natural and socio-economic. The project will run for 48 months with a total number of 186 months of secondments.
