52°North at EGU25: Tackling Big Data Challenges in Earth System Sciences

Exploring Data Compression & Data Spaces in the Cloud Computing Era

We are excited to announce that our partner, 52°North, will be participating in the European Geosciences Union General Assembly 2025 (EGU25) with a poster presentation focusing on one of the most pressing challenges in Earth system sciences today:

 Big Data in Earth System Sciences: The Challenges of Data Compression & Data Spaces in the Cloud Computing Era

The Importance of Big Data in Earth Sciences

With the ever-growing volume of environmental data, researchers and institutions face significant hurdles in efficiently storing, managing, and processing information. From satellite observations to in-situ sensor networks, the data influx demands innovative solutions for compression and seamless integration into modern cloud-based data spaces.

52°North, partner and non-profit organization dedicated to spatial information research, focuses on developing methods, technologies, and infrastructures to transform spatial data into valuable information. At the EGU25, it will showcase innovative approaches to optimizing data storage and accessibility, ensuring that researchers and decision-makers can harness the full potential of environmental data without compromising efficiency.
