Increasing the Awareness of the Benefits of Earth Observation Applications through the Space Information Infrastructure Capacity Building and Training Program (SIICaP)

The Philippine Space Agency (PhilSA) launched the Space Information Infrastructure Capacity Building and Training Program (SIICaP) to promote EO awareness through free online webinars. This paper examines SIICaP’s webinars, highlighting their impact on raising awareness of EO data and services. Evaluation results from participants demonstrate the program’s success and reach, contributing to the development of similar capacity-building initiatives.


This paper is part of the ISPRS TC V Mid-term Symposium “Insight to Foresight via Geospatial Technologies” on 06-08 August 2024 in Manila, Philippines.
