DESCRIPTION:Copernicus User Workshop in Croatia\n\nCopernicus Atmosphere M
 onitoring Service (CAMS) & Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S)\n\n\n\n
 Date: Tuesday 13th November and Wednesday 14th November 2018\n\nLocation: 
 Zagreb\, Croatia\n\nDetailed Location: Hotel Dubrovnik\, Gajeva ul. 1\, 10
 000\, Zagreb\, Croatia https://hotel-dubrovnik.hr/\n\nThe Copernicus servi
 ces on Atmosphere Monitoring (CAMS) and Climate Change (C3S)\, in collabor
 ation with the Croatian Ministry of the Environment and the Croatian Meteo
 rological and Hydrological service invite to a two-days workshop in Zagreb
 \, Croatia to learn more about the products and uses of data and informati
 on from these two Copernicus services. The meeting is to start on Tuesday 
 13th November at 10:00 a.m. and end on Wednesday 14th November at 15:00 p.
 m.\n\nCopernicus is an EU funded earth observation programme designed to p
 rovide data and information freely and openly through six services to tack
 le environmental challenges and stimulate innovation and economic growth. 
 Copernicus is the European Union’s flagship Earth observation programme.
  The Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) provides continuous d
 ata and information on air quality\, atmospheric composition\, and climate
  change. The Copernicus Climate Change (C3S) delivers operational data and
  access to several climate indicators and climate indices on a range of to
 pics and sectoral areas. C3S and CAMS are both implemented by ECMWF on beh
 alf of the European Commission.\n\n \n\nWorkshop outline\n\nThe Copernicu
 s User workshop is addressed to Croatian governmental officers and experts
  interested to understand better the capabilities the Copernicus Atmospher
 e Monitoring Service (CAMS) and the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S
 ).\n\nThe User Workshop will bring a unique opportunity to be acquainted w
 ith the Copernicus available products and data\, to meet in person members
  of the CAMS and C3S teams and to interact with existing users of the serv
 ices and learn from their experiences. \n\nThe Copernicus workshop in Cro
 atia will help to identify the needs of the local administration and refle
 ct how the Croatian private sector and the environmental community can ben
 efit from Copernicus services for public and private applications focusing
  on Green Growth and Smart City development. Topics include weather and cl
 imate modelling\, air pollution\, hazard forecasting\, sectoral benefits\,
  impact-based predictions and adaptation strategies at the local level\, a
 nd the effective communication of air quality and climate science to the g
 eneral public as well as the media.\n\n \n\nDuring the workshop \n\n\n	th
 e CAMS and the C3S teams will describe the services\, the delivery options
  and the user feedback mechanisms\;\n	CAMS and C3S users will share their 
 experiences of using Copernicus products and services\;\n	you will have th
 e opportunity to tell the CAMS and the C3S teams what you might need from 
 Copernicus\, thereby shaping the future development of the services.\n\n\n

 S data is already being used by government officials\, policy-makers and l
 ocal planners\, scientists and academics\, as well as business and industr
 y.\n\nExisting CAMS and C3S users include\n\n\n	government bodies using fo
 recasts and data for policy development\,\n	local air quality forecast pro
 viders using CAMS forecasts to determine expected air quality at the edge 
 of their local forecast domain\n	academic institutions using CAMS and C3S 
 data for research\,\n	commercial organizations generating revenue streams 
 by adapting the free CAMS and C3S products\n\n\nhttps://events.ecmwf.int/e
