Awards

Every year, at EARSC, we recognize companies’ performance and outstanding products for their exemplary contribution to the European Earth Observation ecosystem through the EARSC Awards campaign. The awards are drawn from various categories and will be judged by renowned international experts identified by EARSC. The jury will review the nominations and select 3 Finalists for each of the Categories. During the ceremony, the winner will be announced.

This year’s awards are sponsored by EarthDaily Agro, a Data and Analytics company developing world-first technologies in data services, satellite processing, machine learning, and actionable insights. The insights they provide allow customers in multiple industries to track long-term trends, monitor change, and take guided, strategic actions to better serve their customers and fulfill their missions.
