Group on Earth Observations (GEO)

❓ Why work with the Group on Earth Observations? 😵💫 We live in an era of exponential data growth and planetary-scale crises. 🤝 At GEO, we foster connections to tackle global challenges through innovative solutions that harness the power of Earth Intelligence. 🌏 We strive to make data and services accessible to enhance sustainable development and environmental management We are always on the lookout for opportunities to establish new relationships with governments, academia, intergovernmental and international governments, civil society, and the private sector.

With so much data at our fingertips, now is the time to invest in integrated Earth Intelligence solutions. As Tshisikhawe Mphaphuli from Eksom-NTCSA says, this is the key to saving lives, building resilience and protecting infrastructure. We'll hear more from Tshisikhawe at the GEO Symposium ⤵️ https://lnkd.in/eRqWkiMU #EarthIntelligenceforAll

The UN Biodiversity conference is coming up soon and GEO will be there. #COP16 is a key platform to promote the role Earth intelligence can play in addressing the global #biodiversitycrisis. Here’s everything you need to know about #COP16Colombia ⤵ https://lnkd.in/eR6gJGW7 #MapEcosystems #EarthIntelligenceforAll 👀 GEO BON / Ai2 / Esri / UN Environment Programme

The last few years have seen growing recognition of the fundamental link between climate and nature. Julian Fox from FAO believes in the power of embracing cutting-edge tech to support efforts to combat deforestation and forest degradation. We'll hear more from Julian at this year's GEO Symposium ⤵️ https://lnkd.in/eRqWkiMU

🤝 GEO and partners GEO BON, Ai2 and Esri will be at #COP16Colombia in October. 🛰 Together, we will host a pavilion exclusively focused on Earth observation and technology to support the implementation of the Global Biodiversity Framework. 🗺 We'll unveil the proof-of-concept for the Global Ecosystems Atlas – the world's first comprehensive, open-access resource for mapping and monitoring ecosystems globally. ❓ Will you be joining us in Cali? #MapEcosystems #EarthIntelligenceforAll Find out more ⤵ https://lnkd.in/eAMSvz3P

Glad to speak at the 2024 #GEO Symposium and Open Data & Open Knowledge (#ODOK) Workshop and contribute to discussions on the implementation plan for the Group on Earth Observations (GEO)’s Post-2025 Vision of "Earth Intelligence for All." This event will take place in #Hangzhou, #China, from 23-26 September. I am humbled by the invitation to share my #AI #Governance perspective. I believe AI should be harnessed to solve real-world problems, which involves incentivizing businesses and empowering regional and local governments, as well as communities, to make informed, science-based decisions. Many questions arise where science alone cannot provide answers. In these cases, AI should be developed and trained to assist in making value judgments, helping prioritize and balance competing interests within society. I will join the discussions on the impact of AI within GEO’s Global Work Programme https://lnkd.in/e74em7qz and engage in discussions around #GEOCRI and #HiMAC.

#AmeriGEOWEEK2024 was amazing and very appreciative to have Under Secretary Jose W. Fernandez participate in this event to strengthen Inter-American Cooperation in advancing #EarthIntelligence4All.
