Geo-informatics
The cluster cares for the development and customization of software and IT systems to access, catalog, store and distribute Earth observation and other geoinformation data, to be used by ECoE as well for external users. Geo-informatics deal with all information infrastructures related to geospatial data, such as acquisition, analysis, processing, evaluation, and visualisation, to facilitate the interpretation, management and decision-making in basic research, as well as the addressing of complex social and environmental challenges. It includes the techniques of geoprocessing, geographic information systems, geometry computer modelling, coordinate reference systems and frames, precise position techniques and navigation.
