DLR spin-off EOMAP launches an online portal for UNESCO programme - Global indicator of water quality
On 22 January 2018, EOMAP GmbH and Co. KG, a spin-off of the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum fuer Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR), presented its online portal for water quality data for all inland and coastal waters worldwide at the UNESCO headquarters in Paris.
"With the new online portal, global comprehensive water quality data are now for the first time available to government institutions, environmental authorities, the water industry and universities; these data will enable better-informed decisions to be made with regard to sustainable water management. This is yet another example of how important Earth observation is for the management of our resources; and it also includes the provision of commercial remote sensing services in an internationally growing market," says Walther Pelzer, Executive Board Member responsible for the DLR Space Administration. The DLR Space Administration is supporting EOMAP with funding from the German Earth observation programme for the preparation of new technologies and services relating to satellite-based remote sensing. EOMAP was founded in 2006 as a spin-off from the DLR Remote Sensing Technology Institute.
