 Objectives of the Competition

The OBSERVE project, a project funded by the European Union under its FP7 programme, is organising a competition which aims at the intensified use of Earth observation data in the Balkans.

Participants from the Balkans and beyond, are invited to analyse given air quality data sets provided by the PROMOTE project and to report their findings to the organisers of the competition.

Registration is free of charge and can be accessed here

The analysis results shall describe typical phenomena that are contained in the data such as pollution levels, their spatial relationships, temporal evolutions, etc. Exact details on the objectives and procedures of the OBSERVE Competition can be found in the Competition Guidelines below

The competition results will be reviewed by a committee and a first prize and two runner-up prizes will be awarded together with a certificate to the best submissions.

The prize winners will be given the opportunity to present their results during the final event of the OBSERVE project that will be organized October 2012 in Thessaloniki, Greece.  Travel funding - air tickets, accommodation and registration fee - will be offered to the prize winners by the OBSERVE project.
