Maploom has recently been awarded a contract by the Environment Agency (EA) to explore EA’s use of Earth Observation (EO) data and tools. The EA is one of the UK’s largest creators of EO data through its LiDAR and other survey programmes in England. EA also has access to Analysis Ready Data from the Copernicus satellite imagery programme (Sentinels 1 and 2) via Defra’s Earth Observation Data Service (EODS).  Drawing on our expertise in Earth Observation and the delivery of EO based services, Maploom is identifying existing use cases, barriers to use and identifying opportunities to expand the use of Earth Observation data and tools within EA.
