DESCRIPTION:\n\nWelcome!\n\nThe Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (
 CAMS)\, in collaboration with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is
  holding a one-day workshop for existing and potential users of CAMS on Th
 ursday 30th January 2020 in Dublin. \n\nCopernicus is the European Union
 ’s flagship Earth observation programme designed to provide data and inf
 ormation freely and openly through six services to tackle environmental ch
 allenges and stimulate innovation and economic growth. Two of the services
 \, on climate change (C3S) and the atmosphere (CAMS) are both implemented 
 by ECMWF on behalf of the European Commission. The Copernicus Atmosphere M
 onitoring Service (CAMS) provides consistent and quality-controlled inform
 ation related to air pollution and health\, solar energy\, greenhouse gase
 s and climate forcing\, everywhere in the world. \n\nWorkshop outline \n\n
 The CAMS user workshops are an opportunity to learn from the experience of
  existing CAMS users and hear how they apply the data to their work\, meet
  members of the CAMS team\, and interact directly with advanced and new us
 ers of CAMS products. \n\nDuring the day: \n\n\n	the CAMS team will descri
 be the services\, data access options and user support mechanisms\; \n	CAM
 S users will share their experiences of using CAMS products and services\;
  \n	you will have the opportunity to tell the CAMS team what you might nee
 d from CAMS\, thereby shaping the future development of the service.\n\n\n
 Registration for the CAMS User Workshop is free and will be open in early 
 December\; CAMS will provide coffee and lunch during the day\, while parti
 cipants are expected to cover their own cost for travel and accommodation.
  Registration is open to anyone interested in attending but space will be 
 limited so we encourage you to register as soon as possible to reserve you
 r place. \n\nIf you are willing to present to attendees\, either as new us
 er to explain your needs for CAMS products or as an experienced user to sh
 are your experiences and suggestions\, please indicate this on the registr
 ation form. \n\nA more detailed agenda will follow soon. \n\nWho is using 
 CAMS? \n\nCAMS data is already being used by scientists and academics\, po
 licy-makers and local planners\, as well as business and industry. \n\nExi
 sting CAMS users include: \n\n\n	commercial organisations generating reven
 ue streams by adapting the free CAMS products\; \n	academic institutions u
 sing CAMS data for research\; \n	government bodies using CAMS forecasts an
 d data for policy development\;\n	local air quality forecast providers usi
 ng CAMS forecasts to determine expected air quality at the edge of their l
 ocal forecast domain. \n\n\nBackground to CAMS and future funding \n\nThe 
 composition\, format and delivery of CAMS services to date has been shaped
  by feedback from service users over the last decade during the pre-operat
 ional and now operational phase of CAMS. The service\, implemented by the 
 European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecast (ECMWF) on behalf of the
  European Union\, is fully operational since 2016 with EU funding guarante
 ed until at least 2020. \n\nhttps://events.ecmwf.int/event/171/
