Space App Camp 2014
Location: European Space Agency, Noordwijk, NL
Dat es: 4th to 12th May 2014
Registration: www.app-camp.eu
Registration deadline: 3rd March 2014
Innovative developers from
Europe with experience in app development are invited to apply for admission to
the Space App Camp by 3 March 2014.
The
EU co-funded project S2G2M2 is inviting 20 developers to the European Space
Agency in the Netherlands (including travel expenses and accommodation) for the
chance to work with like-minded people, learn how to integrate satellite data
into their mobile applications, and gain insight into European space programmes.
The participants in the Space App Camp will be selected based on the creativity
of their previous works with regard to content, usability, design, and the
underlying business concepts. Those interested will need to include links to
published apps (Android or iOS platforms) and other references in their applications.
During the Space App Camp, the participants will be provided with access to
satellite data designed to help them develop mobile applications in five
predefined categories. The goal is to come up with working app prototypes that
use data from Europe’s satellite navigation (Galileo/EGNOS)
and Earth observation (Copernicus)
programmes on mobile devices. Experience in integrating such data is not
required to take part in the Space App Camp.
Those interested can apply to
participate in the Space App Camp via an online registration form until 3 March
2014. Participants will be able to choose their preferred category, and can
apply as teams of two or four. Those applying as teams of two will be grouped
accordingly into teams of four.
