NORMAP: Norwegian Satellite Earth Observation Database for Marine and Polar Research

Project Logo:

Creating a data repository for Nordic and Arctic regions for Earth Observation data from polar orbiting satellites, serving research and application in marine, polar and climate sciences.

By 2020 Norway aims to be an internationally leading country in the integrated use of satellite Earth Observation data for: (i) research and application targeting the environmental, ecosystem and climate changes in the Nordic and Arctic regions, and (ii) knowledge based support to management and industry.
