ESA’s Living Planet Symposium 2025 (23-27 June) in Vienna, Austria
Last month occured ESA’s Living Planet Symposium 2025 (23-27 June) in Vienna, Austria. The opportunity to present outcomes of our ESA Digital Twin Hydr’Avatar project to a broad audience, from researchers to ESA representatives, and also to meet again in person colleagues involved in the project.
Our project was presented in 3 different occasions:
- A 2 minutes pitch in the ESA Hydrology Science Cluster session, alongside with other hydro-related projects;
- A technical presentation of first scientific outcomes in ESA’s digital-twin components session, during which we showcased the very first insights on model deployments and related advances in the use of Earth Observation in hydrologic and hydraulic fields;
- A presentation in the invited session that showcased demonstrations of simulations and their contribution to flood analysis.
All sessions were really inspiring and permitted us to evidence the nice progression of the project and to highlight the consequent contributions that EO datasets can bring in the field of hydrology and hydraulics. The symposium was also the opportunity to foresee potential collaboration and exchanges with other projects and thematics. We are thankfull to the organizers for organizing this meeting and to the colleagues researchers for the insightfull discussions that took place during the symposium, and look forward to continuing the discussions.
