Discover JETO: SITRANS Launches the Observatory for Environmental Monitoring and Sustainable Energy Transformation
A new digital platform for data-driven environmental monitoring for a just energy transition
The SITRANS project is excited to announce the launch of the JETO Observatory, a new digital platform aimed at supporting sustainable energy transition and environmental monitoring. JETO (Just Energy Transition Observatory) combines advanced data visualisation, analysis and collaborative tools. Its aim is to address the complex challenges of decarbonisation, socio-economic resilience, and effective governance within Europe's energy landscape.
At the heart of JETO is a meso-level approach that explores the socio-economic and governance factors essential for eliminating poverty, fostering inclusive growth, and promoting a just energy transition. The platform enables stakeholders, researchers, and policymakers to collaborate, unlocking valuable visions for informed decision-making.
The JETO platform features a wealth of functionalities to enhance environmental monitoring and sustainable planning. Users will find comprehensive geospatial and socio-economic data readily accessible, supporting ongoing analysis and decision-making. Emphasizing open science, JETO allows users to explore and develop new applications using its resources. Anyone can freely download raw data to conduct independent analyses within their teams. To foster a collaborative approach, JETO consolidates research, geospatial data, and policy documentation within its knowledge repository. The observatory is organised around three pillars: public participation, geospatial data access, and reporting tools – that promote transparent governance, rigorous impact assessment, and accessible policy support. Features like Story Maps and the Geospatial INSPIRE repository provide an immersive experience for users of all levels.
The JETO Observatory is now live and freely accessible to the public. To explore the full capabilities of this platform, visit JETO Observatory.
With the launch of JETO, SITRANS reaffirms its commitment to a transparent, data-driven, and inclusive approach to energy transition.
