Join the frontier of satellite data & signals with the CASSINI Hackathons and start Digitising Green Spaces…

1

 

As you read this, several of Europe’s satellites are orbiting Earth collecting immense amounts of data and providing positioning signals that can be leveraged to improve life on Earth. CASSINI is looking for the next generation of hackers to create innovative products and services using these EU Space technologies.

 

Kicking-off this year, the CASSINI Hackathons & Mentoring is a bold initiative to connect hackers to space by using Copernicus data & services and Galileo and EGNOS signals & data. The European Commission launched the Competitive Space Start-ups for Innovation Initiative (CASSINI) to put Europe on the frontier of digital technologies — and you can be a part of it!

 

The 1st CASSINI Hackathon will be held simultaneously in 10 European countries from 18-20 June. The goal of the hackathon is ‘Digitising Green Spaces’ and three challenges await potential space hackers to achieve this: #1 Discover your city / #2 Staying fit & healthy / #3 Protecting our rural areas.

 

In Portugal, the hackathon will be organised by the Instituto Pedro Nunes (IPN), the coordinator of ESA Space Solutions Portugal. As a bonus, hackers will receive a participant kit full of goodies and prizes to power your solutions. Find out more about the CASSINI Hackathons at hackathons.cassini.eu/portugal!

 

Whether you are an experienced hacker or a first timer looking to enter the space industry, IPN will team you up with fellow hackers and experienced mentors to bring your vision to life.

 

The 3 overall winners will receive over 100 hours of expert mentoring and additional local prizes! Thinking about registering? Head over to hackathons.cassini.eu/hackers now to sign up!
