📢 Project Update – EVIDERI
The EVIDERI project has reached its final milestone: yesterday, the final meeting took place at the European Space Agency – ESA ESRIN headquarters in Frascati, Italy.
The project, funded by ESA, aims to promote the use of Earth Observation (EO) and Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) data as legal evidence in investigations and proceedings related to crimes of international concern.
The EVIDERI consortium — composed by sarmap SA, IABG, and
Janes Group UK Limited — presented the project’s achievements and the valuable lessons learned throughout its development to the end user, the International Criminal Court (ICC), and to ESA.
We are extremely pleased with the positive feedback received from the ICC and honored by the significant impact that our work had on the definition of the procedure needed to include EO data in the Court’s investigate and prosecute crimes of concern to the international community.
We sincerely thank Maria Michela Corvino, ESA technical officer, for providing this opportunity to demonstrate how Earth Observation data combined with OSINT can play a pivotal role in such new domains of application.
We deeply thanks the ICC for their invaluable feedback throughout the project and the entire EVIDERI team for their exceptional professionalism and dedication.
