A summary of the evaluation of the UK Space Agency's Centre for EO Instrumentation (CEOI) programme, launched in 2007.
Earth Observation (EO) science is fundamental to humanity's understanding of our planet, and EO services support around 4.7% of the UK's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The UK Space Agency launched its Centre for EO Instrumentation (CEOI) programme in 2007 to deliver an EO Instrumentation Programme (EOIP) to maintain and grow UK capability in low Technology-Readiness-Level (TRL) EO instrumentation. The EOIP was later expanded into the EO Technology Programme (EOTP) with an additional £15 million up to March 2025 to develop innovative EO satellite instrumentation to maintain the UK's position at the forefront of EO capability and expertise.
