Description
Activation date: 2022-07-05
Event type: Other
Activation reason:
CEMS Risk and Recovery Mapping service has been activated by DG Joint Research Centre with the aim to source high-quality reference dataset to establish the new Exposure Mapping component of the Copernicus Emergency Management Service. The outputs of this activation will be used for the establishment of the service (including tender preparation and eventually assessment), Global Human Settlement Layer2 (GHSL) validation, and training. The analysis will focus on 5 sample areas distributed across regions of the world that show heterogeneous human settlement characteristics in terms of built-up surface structures, level of planned development, formality, economic affluence, landscape, and building typologies among others.
