Abstract
An overview will be presented of the Earth Observation missions currently under preparation, development or operations by the European Space Agency (ESA). The presentation will encompass the Earth Explorer missions addressing key scientific issues, the operational missions such as Copernicus Sentinels in partnership with the European Union (EU) and the meteorological missions in partnership with the European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT), and also the preparation of future Earth Observation missions and innovative concepts based e.g. on small satellites.
