SCO Call for projects 2025
The Space for Climate Observatory (SCO) is thrilled to announce its latest Call for Proposals, inviting innovative minds and organizations to join us in transforming the landscape of climate action. This is your chance to be part of a global movement that leverages the power of Earth Observation (EO) data to develop operational tools addressing the urgent challenges of climate change and create a powerful combination with valuable in situ data.

Every year, the SCO has a strong presence at the IAC. It is the preferred venue for holding one of its two annual steering committees and welcoming new members, and the alliance now has 50 signatories. The 2024 edition is also marked by a plenary session devoted entirely to SCO and the presentation of the Eurisy Hubert Curien Prize. Here's a look back at these three highlights.

With a system that is operational, global, open to all and based on radar satellite data (Sentinel-1), TropiSCO is an emblematic SCO project. Since 10 September 2024, the platform has made it possible to monitor deforestation in Thailand in near-real time.

Spatial altimetry enables us to measure precisely the rise in sea levels, which is accelerating. The extent of this rise varies from place to place, and coastal communities need tools to project their future into the coming decades. As the successor to the SCO LITTOSCOPE project, CORISCLIM offers a rapid assessment of future coastal flood risks worldwide.
Learn more ➔Monitoring air quality from space
Air quality is a public health issue. Satellite data can help enrich atmospheric emission inventories and define action plans to improve air quality. This is demonstrated by three SCOlutions presented on Thursday 12 September 2024 at the fourteenth SCO France Quarterly Meeting.
Learn more ➔Littosat is fully operational and can be transposed to coastal monitoring
For managers of coastal areas and marine protected areas, Littosat has developed a dashboard for real-time monitoring of coastal vegetation, fed by new data from satellite images. With 2 demonstrators already online, the system is designed to be replicable and provide customized services.
Learn more ➔EducSCO apps are bilingual
School means education, means EducSCO! As the core programme of the SCO in France, EducSCO is adapting its two online applications to the English language.
Learn more ➔GUS, an observatory for urban vegetation
At the end of 24 months' work, the Green Urban Sat (GUS) project has produced a remarkable dashboard of urban vegetation in the Greater Nancy Metropolitan Area. With an open-access code, it lays the foundations for a powerful decision-making tool for urban managers wishing to base their adaptation strategies on the ecosystem services provided by vegetation.
