Geo-Academy is back for a second year at the European Researchers’ Night in Europe’s biggest science outreach event!

This year, Ellinogermaniki hosts European Researchers’ Night inside the school permises. Our booth welcomed approximately 600 visitors who dove into our interactive app built on Landsat 8 satellite imagery. Exploring the theme of urbanization, guests could see how major cities like Athens, Dubai, Cairo, Guangzhou, and Doha have transformed and expanded from 1986 to 2025, gaining a clear, visual understanding of nearly four decades of urban development.

We were also thrilled to engage teachers and students with our free e-modules on GIS, remote sensing, and geospatial storytelling, designed to help bring these topics into classrooms with ready-to-use training.

A special highlight: students took the stage with short presentations on Earth observation and GIS. Among them, a student awarded in a Greek map-storytelling competition showcased their winning work, inspiring peers and sparking great conversations about how geospatial tools can tell powerful stories.

Thank you to everyone who visited; see you next year!
