Projects

MEEO's services on the DestinE Platform: EDEN & VizLab, to discover and access Digital Twin data, and the data backbone of VISION, for immersive 3D visualisation.

Project aims to enhance our understanding of the Baltic Sea’s ecosystem and dynamics by developing 4D reconstructions of the Baltic Sea's physical and biogeochemical state, integrating EO data with advanced modelling to inform sustainable maritime and environmental policies..

Extreme weather and poor air quality are becoming harder to predict. The EU-funded CLEAR-EO project is building a geospatial analysis and notification system powered by European cloud infrastructure and new Meteosat Third Generation and EPS-SG satellite data. It will support flash flood decision-making in cities, climate adaptation in agriculture, and accurate air quality forecasts, strengthening the Copernicus and EO/weather services ecosystem.

CONCERTO is a Horizon Europe project which aims to reduce uncertainty in Earth system models by improving the monitoring and modelling of the terrestrial carbon cycle.

Federated data infrastructure supporting Earth System science within the ICSC Spoke 4, providing FAIR-compliant access to climate datasets and simulations.

An ESA Digital Twin Earth initiative delivering web-based tools for interactive exploration of hydrological simulations, now extended to Europe and selected areas in Africa and Central America.

An EU-funded research project (2025–2029) turning the design of multimodal foundation models into a rigorous, scalable scientific discipline.

EarthGenerator is a Research and Innovation Action funded by the Horizon Europe programme, developing a foundation model of the Earth system. Extending the [WeatherGenerator](https://weathergenerator.eu/) model, it integrates atmosphere, ocean and land into a single, physically consistent model that adapts to multiple downstream tasks, from seasonal forecasting to multi-annual climate projections, with minimal additional training.

A hybrid modelling pipeline that turns Soil Organic Carbon change into bank-aligned indicators for the regenerative transition.

A Horizon Europe project facilitating the use of Earth Observation data for environmental, governmental, and business forecasting through a user-friendly platform.

ESA Multi-mission Algorithm and Analysis Platform initiative for geospatial discovery and collaborative analysis of biomass and forest-related data collections.

ESA platform providing geospatial data access and processing capabilities to International Financial Institutions collaborating with the Global Development Assistance programme.

ESA service that makes EO mission datasets accessible and ready to use by transforming them into cloud-native formats to feed the Digital Twin Earth models into the DestinE platform.

Interoperable digital twins of the ocean, including near real-time oil spill detection and forecasting in the Cretan Sea.

IRIDE is an integrated Earth Observation system launched under Italian National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR) and coordinated by European Space Agency (ESA) and Italian Space Agency (ASI), consisting of a satellite constellation of over 60 units and a ground-based operational infrastructure.

Component of the Italian IRIDE program focused on developing predictive Digital Twins for natural disaster.

Self-supervised deep learning that reconstructs cloud-free daily Lake Surface Water Temperature, from single-lake pilots to global monitoring.

RescueME is a Research Action funded by the Horizon Europe programme, focusing on enhancing the resilience of coastal cultural landscapes in Europe. RescueME mobilizes resources, engages stakeholders, facilitates decision making, and enhances the implementation of co-created and just resilience solutions to protect our common heritage.

A project leveraging Satlantis high-resolution satellite imagery to deliver analysis-ready and visualisation-ready EO products for downstream applications.

Improving the assessment and prediction of rainfall-induced soil erosion in Italy with Machine Learning applied to Earth Observation data.

An ESA Space Solutions Kick-start activity led by MEEO, exploring how Large Language Models can turn Earth Observation and climate data into engaging, accessible content.

A Horizon Europe project updating the regional adaptation strategy of Emilia-Romagna to the effects of the climate crisis, in particular floods and heat waves.

Horizon Europe project developing integrated Copernicus-based services for coastline detection, erosion prediction, flood risk management, and water pollution assessment.

A web-based platform that shows coexisting urban risks together in Milan and Bologna, for coordinated decision-making.

The official Copernicus DIAS (Data and Information Access Services) platform, providing access to Copernicus, climate, and Earth observation data for a broad community of users.
