−	'''EODC''' was the ~~first~~ operational [https://~~ati~~.ec.~~europa~~.eu/~~sites~~/~~default~~/~~files~~/~~2020~~-06/~~Big%20Data%20in%20Earth%20Observation%20%28v1%29~~.~~pdf big EO~~ data] processing ~~center dedicated to~~ the ~~storage of global~~ [https://~~sentinel~~.~~esa~~.~~int~~/web/~~sentinel~~/~~missions~~/~~sentinel~~-~~1 Sentinel~~-1] ~~data as well as provision~~ of ~~fully~~ automatic, ~~continuous S-~~1 ~~based processing services~~.	+	'''EODC''' (Earth Observation Data Centre for Water Resources Monitoring GmbH) was established in May 2014 as a visionary concept outlined by Prof. Wolfgang Wagner and a group of public and private actors in the field of Earth Observation. '''EODC'''’s setup was a direct response to the [https://www.copernicus.eu/it Copernicus programmes Sentinel missions] and their unprecedented amounts of data they will acquire over the next decades. <br>
		+
		+	The constellation’s projected data volumes and consequently data transfers, in combination with data hungry algorithms (i.e. machine learning, time series analysis) far exceed local storage and bandwidth capacity. The algorithms themselves also demand increasing computational power. Therefore, '''EODC'''’s focus and mission is to efficiently connect the required storage (data) and the compute power (software) and thus eliminating data transfers. <br>
		+	This is achieved through a close co-operation with '''EODC'''’s partner network, consisting of pillars in ''EO'' science (academic and research institutions), business (''SMEs'') and government (governmental and inter-governmental institutions) and non-profit (''NGOs'' and foundations).
		+
		+	'''EODC'''’s serves as a platform where its customers and long-term partners can access state-of-the-art cloud computing, data and products from a vast long-term repository of EO missions (see the figure below). Moreover, '''EODC''' offers exclusive access to the Vienna Scientific Cluster (VSC) super computing infrastructure (VSC-3 and VSC-4 ranked 82 in the top 500 in June 2019).
		+
		+	===Related expertise===
		+	The '''EODC''' has been working on an IT infrastructure concept that fully supports storage, processing and re-distribution of various types of EO data, using most up-to-date ICT solutions. <br>
		+	Following changes in technology over time and requirements arising through different types of EO data, this concept is being constantly adapted. Lessons learned and knowledge gained through this process form a solid basis for understanding of the needs and requirements associated with high performance storage and retrieval of large data streams, value-added product generation, as well as timely delivery in different manners (e.g. download, web-mapping and processing services, etc.) and to interdisciplinary interested parties. <br>
		+	The '''EODC'''’s three broad spheres of service provision include cloud and high-performance computing, data and product provision, and the development of bespoke EO software and services.
		+
		+	===Related experience===
		+	The '''EODC''' is active in a number of national and international projects. After the successful implementation and completion of phase 1 and phase 2 of ESA’s CCI Essential Climate Variable (ECV) [https://climate.esa.int/en/projects/soil-moisture/about/ soil moisture project], '''EODC''' leads the R&D evolution of the soil moisture ECV. <br>
		+	Furthermore, EODC provides an operational framework for the production, and scientific advancement, for the soil moisture climate data record derived from passive and active space borne EO data sets. The '''EODC''' successfully led the [ https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/portfolio/dataset/satellite-soil-moisture Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) Soil Moisture Service] and currently leads the [https://climate.copernicus.eu/land-hydrology-cryosphere C3S Land Hydrology and Cryosphere (LHC) Services] with an operational Climate Data Production System (CPS) in place, it provides Soil Moisture Climate Data Records (CDR) and coordinates the provision of Lakes, Glaciers, and Ice Sheets and Ice Shelf ECV CDR’s to [https://ecmwf.int ECMWF] and [https://climate.copernicus.eu/climate-data-store C3S].
		+
		+	Moreover, '''EODC''' coordinates its partners in the provision of near real-time soil water index (SWI) products, provides a mirrored processing chain, and offers reprocessing service in the [https://iiasa.ac.at/web/home/research/researchPrograms/EcosystemsServicesandManagement/C-Glops.html C-GLOPS project], which is the first fully operational phase of the [https://land.copernicus.eu/global/index.html Copernicus Global Land] segment. <br>
		+	Furthermore, '''EODC''' and its partners are active in projects dealing with the development of scientific algorithms and automatic processing chains for the monitoring of different local, regional and global parameters from [https://sentinels.copernicus.eu/ Sentinel 1], [https://sentinels.copernicus.eu/ Sentinel 2] and other EO data sources.

−	In this regard, the company has a lead advance of some 5 years of hands-on operation experience as compared to any other Sentinel processing facilities or the [https://www.copernicus.eu/it/accesso-ai-dati/dias Copernicus DIAS]’s. <br>
−	Since 2018 '''EODC''' is a federation partner of the [https://wekeo.eu/ WEkEO Dias]. Important for the '''GFM''' group leader, '''EODC''' has project implementation experience for both [https://land.copernicus.eu/global/index.html Copernicus Global Land Services] and for operational [https://ec.europa.eu/jrc/en/about/jrc-site/ispra JRC] service projects (e.g. [https://land.copernicus.eu/global/sites/cgls.vito.be/files/products/CGLOPS1_SQAD_I2.00.pdf C-GLOPS1, C-GLOPS2]). <br>
−	Moreover, '''EODC''' currently leads the [https://climate.copernicus.eu/ Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S)] activity “Land hydrology and cryosphere” (C3S 312b Lot4), and the [https://climate.esa.int/en/ ESA Climate Change Initiative (CCI)] “Soil Moisture” activity. <br>
−	The envisaged GFM processing and data access system will be set up based on lessons learned by '''EODC''' and [[GeoVille]] e.g. from [https://land.copernicus.eu/global/products/ssmCLMS Global Sentinel-1 Soil Moisture Service], the [https://land.copernicus.eu/imagery-in-situ/global-image-mosaics/node/16 Sentinel2 Global Mosaic Service], the [https://land.copernicus.eu/pan-european/high-resolution-layers/water-wetness HRL Water&Wetness ] and the ''CLC+DIAS''-based processing setups ([https://wekeo.eu/ WEkEO], [https://mundiwebservices.com/ Mundi]), and other cloud based applications (e.g. on AWS, EODC, CODE-DE, private clouds). <br>
−	Both partners have had the requirements for fast Sentinel-1 data access, implemented cutting-edge techniques (e.g. Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, et c.) along with latest storage technologies within easily portable, scalable Sentinel based monitoring systems, providing blueprints for most efficient technology utilization for the '''GFM''' product.
