📢#BEYONDNewsAlert 🔝BEYOND’s Key Contribution takes centre stage at the 2024 GEO Symposium, in Hangzhou, China, 24/9/2024 🌍🚀 Today, during the 2024 GEO Symposium in Hangzhou, China, Haris Kontoes, Research Director of NOA and Scientific Director of the BEYOND Centre of Earth Observation Research and Satellite Remote Sensing, IAASARS/NOA, participated as a panellist speaker in the "One Health" session presenting EuroGEO - European contribution to GEO and the role of the EuroGEO Action Group on Disasters Resilience and Health . In particular Charalampos (Haris) Kontoes highlighted the European contribution to One Health and the GEO Work Programme, focusing on the EU-supported flagships for systematic surveillance and early warning of climate change-induced infectious diseases across large territories. His presentation emphasized 🎯 on Europe's contribution to monitoring climate-induced infectious diseases, stressing the importance of accessing comprehensive datasets—spanning health, demographic, landscape, air, and water quality data. He also underscored the need for enhanced data collection, standardization, and user engagement, as well as the development of educational curricula in support of One Health initiatives. 🌿🌍 #EuroGEO #OneHealth #GEO2024 #EarthIntelligenceforAll #DataForHealth #ClimateResilience Group on Earth Observations (GEO) EuroGEO - European contribution to GEO

💡 We have teamed up with the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation and Microsoft's AI for Good Lab to map climate-vulnerable populations In unprecedented detail. Together, we’re using #satellite imagery, #AI and spatial demography to develop high-resolution, comprehensive, and up-to-date population maps, starting in low-resource/high-climate-stress countries. The resulting maps can be used to help model exposure to climate-linked migration risks, food insecurity, disease burden, and many other contemporary hazards. https://lnkd.in/djXt_vxy

🧠 Today, on ALS/MND Global Awareness Day, we unite to raise awareness and show support for those affected by Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Motor Neuron Disease (MND). The power of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in this field cannot be underestimated. GIS technology aids in understanding the geographical distribution of ALS/MND cases, assessing environmental factors, supporting policy & research initiatives, and more. 📈 By leveraging GIS, researchers and healthcare providers can visualize complex data, track disease patterns, and collaborate more effectively on a global scale. This technology not only enhances our knowledge but also helps in driving forward new treatment and care strategies. 🌐 Explore how GIS is making a difference in the fight against ALS/MND through this dedicated hub: https://lnkd.in/d6eXZ3yu Let’s stand together in our commitment to combat ALS/MND and improve the lives of those impacted. #ALSMND #HealthGIS #GlobalAwareness #HealthcareInnovation Pat Dolan Amanda Stanko Mara Viti Dolan Michelle Lorenz Danielle B.

I'm a fan of good data visualisation, and this is great. It's using GIS (Geographic Information System) to link health and location. Projects such as this are critical for shaping public health interventions, identifying risks and issues connected to place and making changes, and measuring outcomes. What's important about these models is it make very clear that health is so much more than healthcare and access to it - it's a complex interplay of a myriad of factors including our built environment (my particular area of interest). #builtenvironment #healthequity #gis #gismapping #datavisualisation https://lnkd.in/gt5MMKwU
