DIAS contracts signed
On 14 December 2017, ESA, acting on behalf of the European Commission, signed Copernicus Data and Information Access Service (DIAS) contracts with four industrial consortia.
The DIAS will give unlimited, free and complete access to Copernicus data and information. The DIAS provides a scalable computing and storage environment for third parties, who will be empowered to offer advanced value-adding services integrating Copernicus with their own data and tools to the benefit of their own users.
The DIAS will not only provide a cloud-based one-stop shop for all Copernicus satellite data and imagery as well as information from the six Copernicus services, but will also give access to sophisticated processing tools and resources.
