Calm after the storm

What a busy few days...we had a large turn-out at both events last week and a great selection of keynote speakers and presenters. There were really too many highlights for me to mention but one of the key take-aways for me is the new RUS system, a virtual machine/data storage/processing facility provided by Copernicus for the user community. They even provide free training and support! The move towards cloud processing is welcome (hardwae gets so old so quickly) and quite evident, looking at the TEPs, Google Earth Engine, now RUS.

It was announced at the close that IEOS2018 will be in Teagasc, thanks to everyone who helped this year and especially the industry sponsors who help keep the event free to attend.
