A complementary operations concept: users access a work environment containing the data and resources required, as opposed to downloading and

replicating the data ‘at home’.

Exploitation platform (or community platform) =

Virtual open and collaborative environment

• data centres (EO and non-EO data)• computing resources and hosted processing

• collaborative tools (processing tools, data mining)• development tools and test bench functions

• application shops and market place functionalities• communication tools (social network)

• accounting tools to manage resource utilisation
