3/ next we heard from Marco Talone, of the Institut de Ciències del Mar about how they use GNSS technologies to study the seas - precisely measuring currents, shifting polar ice, and more.
4/ keeping it nautical, our final speaker was Albert Garcia-Mondéjar, of isardSAT https://www.isardsat.cat who told us about the history of measuring sea level, and the amazing improvements in EO technology over the last decades that now enable measurement with a correctness of 0,2 mm!
5/ All the talks were interesting, but only one could win the SplashMap best speaker prize: https://www.splash-maps.com
