At the forefront of Earth Observation lies the European Commission’s Copernicus programme. The space segment of this programme consists of contributing satellite missions, known as the Sentinels, which are coordinated through the European Space Agency (ESA). All Sentinel data are freely and openly accessible online. To encourage user uptake of these data at national level, so-called Copernicus Relays have been initiated. The job of the Copernicus Relays is to promote the usage of these data through information and training activities. SIOS was successful in the bid to become one of currently three Copernicus Relays for Norway. Our aim is to encourage new user uptake by providing researchers with the necessary guidance they need to use these timely data sets.
