What is the Coastal Hub?
The Coastal Thematic Hub is a Copernicus web portal that provides coastal data and information. It includes interactive maps and offers Copernicus data to support evidence-based decision-making and sustainable management practices.
Why did we create it?
The Coastal Thematic Hub was created to provide a central repository for data and information related to coastal areas. The goal of the hub is to support evidence-based decision-making and promote sustainable management practices for coastal ecosystems.
Who is behind it?
The Coastal Hub has been created by the European Commission under the Copernicus Programme. Copernicus is the Earth observation component of the European Union’s Space programme, looking at our planet and its environment to benefit all European citizens and inform on environmental and climate changes to help policymakers and citizens make informed decisions. It offers information services that draw from satellite Earth Observation and in-situ (non-space) data.
