SNOWCOP is an EU Horizon Europe-funded project that aims to improve the quantification of meltwater from snow and ice in the Andes and beyond by unlocking the full potential of European Copernicus data and infrastructure. Eurac Research is the project coordinator and provides expertise in mountain cryosphere monitoring as well as EO cloud computing. The objective is to integrate Copernicus data into physical models and implement it in the most advanced cloud infrastructure, such as the Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem (CDSE), driving unprecedented innovation in meltwater management.
