Living Planet Symposium

For ESA’s world’s largest Earth observation conference, Ars Electronica Solutions’ successful collaboration with ESA was continued. The impressive exhibit from ESRIN’s Φ-Experience in Frascati, the “Half Dome Globe”, was replicated as a modified mobile version and provides the latest data and findings on climate, weather and meteorology.

The interaction with topics from climate research and meteorology and the corresponding data takes place via a mobile device. ESA Climate Office staff used this to present the latest visualisations of data from Earth observation, individually tailored to the visitors.
