With the start of ESA's new Space Safety programme, the SWE Service Network will continue to expand its capabilities to provide timely and reliable information to end users through targeted developments of new models and tools and also through further development of the network infrastructure itself. With the start of the new Programme, the SWE network workshop will provide an opportunity to discuss current capabilities, challenges and particular focus will be placed on both service and network development needs together with key underpinning technologies. Feedback from service users forms an essential part of the SWE Service Network's overall development process and in light of this a number of sessions will be specifically focussed to include discussion of end user needs and feedback. A mix of Expert Service Centre (ESC) specific and network wide sessions covering topics of interdisciplinary interest will take place over the course of three days. A new introduction to this workshop is the inclusion of training type presentations and demonstrations for portal users to highlight features and functionality of the major new release, ESA Space Weather Portal 3.1 as well as walk-throughs of ESC specific tools and products. The agenda and overall programme for this meeting has been compiled by the Solar Weather, Heliospheric Weather, Space Radiation, Ionospheric Weather and Geomagnetic Conditions ESCs, the Space Weather Coordination Centre and the ESA Space Weather Team. 2.2 Online Format This year the ESA SWE Service Network Workshop will take place online and sessions will be hosted virtually via five main meeting ‘rooms’ utilising the WebEx software. There are five virtual meeting rooms named after five spacecraft contributing Space Weather data; ‘Voyager' , 'Lagrange' , 'Cluster' , 'Swarm’ and 'SOHO' that can be accessed via WebEx links in section 6 of this document. The session timetable outlined in section 3 will let you know which room to access for a given session. Participants should click the meeting room corresponding to the correct day of the workshop or else they will be taken to the wrong page.
