ExtremeEarth: The Polar Use Case

Kurzfassung

The Polar Use Case in ExtremeEarth aims to address these issues through the development of a range of valuable tools. Deep learning algorithms will be developed to extract valuable sea ice and iceberg information from the ever increasing volumes of data collected by the Copernicus Sentinel satellite constellations. These new algorithms will be implemented on the Polar Thematic Exploitation Platform (Polar TEP) providing processing resources to produce the new information products. New data sets will be released for training and validating the new algorithms. Linked data tools will extend the capabilities for data access and discovery with semantic catalogue services that scale to the volumes of big data produced in the project. Frontend services, such as the PolarTEP and the Norwegian Meteorological Institute ice charts, will provide simple user access to browse and query the data generated.
