The aim of the cooperative society Earth observation Living Labs (E2L) is to develop the use of space technologies based on the tools of geospatial information, to serve rural territories, by co-designing innovative solutions to create value and to improve existing practices. The central idea of the Living Lab focuses on the concept of regional Living Labs: E2L proposes a set of contexts (ways of expressing requirements for users, testing and demonstrations), to prove the usefulness of the applications of research and development activities in space technologies. The aim of E2L is to support the creation of new services by placing the end user in the position of being a co-developer on the scale of publicly managed territories. E2L continues to develop the method initiated in the area of Pays Portes de Gascogne which has been the creation of a Pôle d’Expérimentation et d’Application des technologies spatiales – PATS (an experimentation cluster on the use of space technologies). This cluster functions as an instrument enabling the adaptation of structural changes of the local economy to help emerging a new dynamic and competitive knowledge economy, based on the ability to experiment, on the local/regional scale. It supports research and technological development projects, whose strong potential of recovery depends on the transferability of its results to companies. Simultaneously, it encourages companies to enrol in the dynamics of research activities.
