NEREUS is pleased to launch a new set of videos showcasing practical regional applications of Copernicus Earth Observation data. The recordings were made during the 2025 Copernicus4Regions Breakfast Debate 2025 and illustrate how regions across Europe are increasingly using Copernicus services to support environmental monitoring, sustainable agriculture, and climate resilience.
Three new videos are now available:
“Lake Monitoring and Protection Using Copernicus Satellite Data”
In this presentation, Thomas Wolf from the LUBW Institute for Lake Research in Baden-Württemberg explains how Copernicus satellite data helps monitor lake ecosystems and support water protection efforts. He also highlights how stronger EU support through the Water Framework Directive could further enhance regional monitoring activities.
“Agricultural Land Use Changes Monitoring”
Michał Maciąg from the Podkarpackie Region (Poland) present how Copernicus data enables detailed analysis of land-use changes. Their work supports regional authorities and local farmers in promoting modern, sustainable agricultural practices.
“Innovative Service for Water Governance and Climate Resilience”
Aurore Delahayes from the French Ministry of Ecological Transition, Biodiversity, Forestry and Sea highlights how Copernicus provides reliable information that traditional monitoring tools alone cannot deliver, strengthening water governance and climate resilience strategies.
These examples demonstrate the growing role of Copernicus in supporting evidence-based decision-making across European regions.
