@milos_agathon @PythonMaps very nice, I'll definitely have a look. 👍🏽

Climate impact is real and tangible.

Together with @humdata, we expanded the coverage of our climate datasets from 32 to 129 countries - a small, but impactful step.

#ClimateData #ClimateAction #EarthObservation

Check if your country of interest is covered 👇

[OCHA Centre for Humanitarian Data @humdata]

Our partners @WFPVAM have now shared climate-related datasets for 129 countries on HDX!

Each country has rainfall estimates & Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) data derived from @climatehazards + @NASA satellite observations.

Oh, I remember. And I remember the one e-mail I got on my phone in Switzerland costing me 22€ because I didn't turn off roaming fast enough 🙄

Europe rocks 🇪🇺

[European Commission @EU_Commission]

Roaming charges are a thing of the past.

Remember when you couldn't activate your mobile data when you travelled abroad because you wanted to avoid high charges?

With our 'Roam Like at Home' regulation, you can enjoy the same benefits abroad as you do at home.

Oh hello there! This is Meteor-2 #weather #satellite sporting a rather 'rustic' design - sleek no less! Some people call it the tin can (probably nobody 😬) #findabettername

But hey, look at all these ports and (presumably) instrumental knobs!!

[@[email protected] @valpesendorfer]

Off to the train station, back to Rome! It's been a pleasure #ODOK2023 🙂

But now, back by popular demand (from me to myself), the satellite safari! 🐅 (senior edition).

Look at that beauty 😍: TIROS-M, in it's full glory inside out!

[@[email protected] @valpesendorfer]

Oh buoy oh buoy! Many cool things to see between sessions at #ODOK2023 in @WMO HQ. Another satellite safari, anyone? 😏

[@[email protected] @valpesendorfer]

Had a blast talking about the @WFPVAM #HumanitarianDataCube
Extremely important to highlight our efforts for the humanitarian community and to connect with colleagues from different communities. Thanks for having me! 🙂

And now the more interesting update: the lake is nice and warm! 🏊‍♂️☀️

Bonsoir, buona sera, good evening and grüezi Genève 👋☀️

After a very comfy train ride from Rome, I'm delighted to be here and to present the #HumanitarianDataCube tomorrow at the @GEOSEC2025 open data and open knowledge workshop! #ODOK2023 #earthobservation
See you tomorrow! 🙂

[@[email protected] @valpesendorfer]

and yes, grüezi is not in line with the other greetings, but I just love the word! ♥️

[@[email protected] @valpesendorfer]

Great interview, highly recommended if you are interested in EO data, their (non)cloud-nativeness and where it's all heading! 💡 #earthobservation #data #dataengineering

Now with the correct URL https://t.co/etzrabRigW Thanks @matthmohr!

Great city, great weather, great team @WFP and great cause! Really enjoyed participating in the #raceforthecure2023 this past Sunday in Rome! 🏃🏽‍♂️💪🏼

[Leighla Bowers @leighla_b]

Race for the Cure on this gorgeous Sunday with @WFPChief and team @WFP!

[@[email protected] @valpesendorfer]

A fantastic collaboration between @WFPVAM and @humdata! For more info check out 👇

[WFP VAM @WFPVAM]

📢 Exciting NEWS!

🔢 WFP’s #HumanitarianDataCube brought over 100 climate-related datasets, covering 32 countries, onto @humdata’s HDX platform.

🌐 W/ climate extremes rising, easy access to #climatedata is critical for humanitarians.

🧵 What sets #HDC apart? A thread ⤵️

[@[email protected] @valpesendorfer]

Remember the #HumanitarianDataCube?

Processing #EO data at scale allows us to create unique datasets like this one: global gap and noise free Land Surface Temperature.

These are key in understanding and countering #ClimateChange - and showing a different side of 🌍 #EarthDay 👇

[WFP VAM @WFPVAM]

🌎 #EarthDay is an urgent call to protect our beloved planet, our unique & common home.

🔎 Check how #Earth’s surface temperature varies over the course of a yr.

🥵 #ClimateChange disrupts seasonal cycles, causing extreme temperature & threatening livelihoods & ecosystems.

[@[email protected] @valpesendorfer]

The #HumanitarianDataCube allows us to process #EarthObservation data at scale and fill a crucial data gap on @humdata's #HDX platform towards their 2023 focus on climate impact data

[WFP VAM @WFPVAM]

🆘 Effective #AnticipatoryAction and crisis response require accurate & open #ClimateData.

🛰️ @WFPVAM's top-quality #EarthObservation datasets have made it a 🔑 contributor to @humdata's #HDX platform.

Pretty cool! Looks bit like an animation of MODIS NDVI I did last year 😏

[ARCHIVED - NASA Climate @NASAClimate]

It's #agday23! There’s something soothing about watching the ebb and flow of plant growth, as seen from @NASA satellites. The “vegetation index” shown here measures the health and vigor of plants and helps farmers monitor the development of their crops over the growing season.🌱

[ARCHIVED - NASA Landsat @NASA_Landsat]

The future of Landsat is “super-spectral.”

#Landsat Next will have 26 spectral bands, including 15 new bands to support emerging user applications.

[World Food Programme @WFP]

As this year's #UNGA gets underway, the number of people experiencing extreme hunger is accelerating at an unprecedented pace.

Understand what’s driving the global #FoodCrisis - and what’s needed from world leaders to stop it.

[@[email protected] @valpesendorfer]

I'm just preparing a CSV file containing some satellite rainfall observations ... checking the structure quickly in #vscode, I find out that the minimap overview feature actually plots out the dry periods! It's like the clunkiest #dataviz plot ever 😅
