Theia facilitates national networking among the satellite community through the implementation of regional animation networks (TRAN – ART in French), mainly in France but also abroad in Southern Countries. Since May 2019, a dedicated network is growing in one French oversea territory : New Caledonia.
RAN’s objectives
- Unite and coordinate users (scientists and public stakeholders) at regional level,
- Participate in community training efforts, particularly concerning added-value products developed by the thematic SECs.
