Working together with SURF for Earth Observation
Channel: Center of Expertise in Big Geodata Science
Date: 08/07/2021

SURF is the collaborative ICT organisation for Dutch education and research, which supports research through the services they offer, including ICT facilities and consultancy. In this presentation an overview of recent developments on SURF infrastructure and services available to researchers will be given with a focus on Earth Observation (EO).

In recent years an increased number of EO projects request IT resources and expertise at SURF. These projects, although typically pursuing different scientific goals, often at a higher-level share common issues concerning data, network, and compute. A new focus group formed at SURF aims to find out the needs of the EO community in the Netherlands and how SURF can best assist this community in achieving its goals.

We are curious to hear from ITC what your biggest challenges are and what you need most.
