1 QC4EO Study Final Presentation

The main objective of the Quantum Computing for Earth Observation (QC4EO) study was to investigate whether quantum computing can provide a quantum advantage to Earth observation applications within a medium to long timeframe (within the next 15 years). The study has been addressed by a multidisciplinary consortium led by Forschungszentrum Jülich consisting of partners with different competences. In the final presentation, the main results of the study will be presented.
