100 years of swisstopo Flight Service – Spatialists – geospatial news

In 1926, #swisstopo pioneered #aerialPhotogrammetry in Switzerland, taking to the skies when aviation was still in its infancy to map the country more precisely and efficiently than ground surveys could. A century later, the #FlightService remains the foundation for swisstopo’s geodata and maps and thus an important basis for planning, research, defence, and everyday life.

Switzerland decides against participating in Copernicus – Spatialists – geospatial news

The Federal Council has decided that Switzerland will sit out the #Copernicus programme for another cycle, from 2028 to 2034, forgoing access to operational #EarthObservation services and public contracts while retaining access to raw data under the programme’s open data policy. A government-commissioned economic study had found accession advisable, warning that non-participation risks Swiss players losing their footing in European earth observation.
