UK Space Agency Climate Services call for ideas

Small grants to help the UK develop business-viable ideas that use space data in a climate-related application.

The UK Space Agency is making £80,000 available in grants to support:

• the use of space data in a climate-related application
• new or novel ideas in the pre-commercial stage
• collaboration with another organisation/entity such that the work/skills/data needed should not all be readily available within one organisation. For example, you might buy access to data or consultancy time.
• ideas that can be developed into a business viable idea by the end of March
• opportunities for discussion the user community such that the new climate service is needed/wanted

Some example themes have been scoped alongside Space4Climate. Climate services can cover any number of themes across mitigation, adaptation and resilience etc, such as:

• land use
• biodiversity
• carbon
• energy
• agriculture
• health
• water management
• education
• natural disaster response
