The SoDa Service - Videos - TV

The SoDa Service has been the subject of several videos.

Two studies were provided to Youris.com "the video portal for information society research", that offers audiovisual resources and other related media content, free of charge.

The SoDa Service has been associated to the activities of the Group for Earth Observation (GEO) thanks to the efforts made by the International Energy Agency (SHC Task 36). The GEO was initiated by the G8. It gathers approx. 70 nations (including the European Commission). The GEO identified nine "benefital social areas". One of them is energy. NASA and Mines ParisTech / Armines promoted a success story in this domain, which is one of the 30 success stories to be shown to the ministerial council for all nine domains. Videos were prepared for the GEO plenary session and ministerial summit held in Cape Town in November 2007. The success story shows four real cases achievements in Africa exploiting solar energy. The design of these systems was made possible by exploiting the SoDa Service, that permits itself to combine the databases SSE and HelioClim from NASA and Armines / Mines ParisTech.
