Monitoring geohazards using on-demand and systematic services on ESA's geohazards exploitation platform

Abstract : ESA's Geohazards Exploitation Platform (GEP) is a cloud-based environment providing a set of processing tools and services that allow mapping hazard prone land surfaces and monitoring terrain deformation. The platform is continuously expanding through its early adopter programme to include a broad range of on-demand and systematic products and services, currently available or under development on cloud processing resources to support EO practitioners and other users to better understand geohazards and their impact. The present work is introducing several of these services as well as other innovative concepts such as GEP's e-collaboration environment.
