ONWARD WEBINAR 08: Space Data for Healthcare
On November 10, 2022, 2-3 PM UTC, we were very honoured to have Veronika Strnadová (EUSPA) and Marketa Gladysev (EUSPA) in our ONWARD Webinar #8 to discuss Space Data for Healthcare. Satellite data contribute to Healthcare in many ways. Earth observation (EO) helps to fight contagious and infectious diseases, thereby supporting prevention, early warning and health-care planning. Moreover, it is an important source of information for mHealth applications, for instance, helping people with allergies or heart diseases or sport & wellbeing enthusiasts. EO data also contribute to timely water quality monitoring and predicting heatwave risks by providing vulnerable people with early warning and further behavioural advices.
