ONDA in support of the MAFIS project by GMATICS

GMATICS is a Rome based start-up that develops and operates systematic geospatial application services exploiting Earth observation data, integrated with other types of information, and using Artificial Intelligence and cloud services.
Within the MAFIS (Multiple Actor Forest Information Service) project – funded by ESA (European Space Agency) through the EOEP-5 initiative –, GMATICS is developing an integrated methodology that combines multi-temporal Earth observation satellite data as well as weather satellite data within a forest growth model.
MAFIS’ aim is to provide [...]

OpenStack API Update

In order to offer the very latest features of our Public Cloud solution, we will need to update the ONDA OpenStack API used to order a key component: Keystone.
Keystone is the authentication and authorisation API that manages the ONDA Public Cloud infrastructure.
Please note that this only applies to users having direct access to the ONDA OpenStack API for the management of Virtual Resources and storage solutions.
When will the update take place?
On 24 March 2020 (postponed), we will disable version [...]
