The pandemic caused by COVID-19 has profound consequences on social, economic and cultural life worldwide, and is affecting, throughout the world, the regular functioning of educational institutions at all levels, with their temporary shutdown and the impossibility of face-to-face classes. This study aims to add to the analysis of the implications of this context in the reformulation of education shaped by the digital. To fulfill this goal, the authors carried out a document collection, and also mobilized their experience in the research and teaching of this topic. It is concluded that these unforeseen circumstances may be a key moment of opportunity for reformulating teaching, with the implementation, development and dissemination among teachers and students of digital technologies in shaping a society that is, itself, increasingly digital, notably Society 5.0. To this end, and as main implications, the agents of the educational process, teachers and students, due to their traits and various reasons, will have to prepare for student-centered learning through the intentional and sensible mobilization of digital technologies in a complex process, in which each agent will be, ultimately, a critical content creator with enhanced digital literacy. In the contemporary digital society, the school needs to reinvent itself, which is even more pressing with the Covid-19 pandemic. Aspects such as training, internet access infrastructure, hardware and software, digital literacy, and students and academics' teaching and learning strategies are essential. The school offers, thus, a critical contribution to social cohesion and social equity through digital inclusion in education for sustainable development.

“…Projected demand is for 300PB of data needing to be stored within the next few years (Quobyte, 2019). Data Volume and Variety are just two of the five V's (Volume, Variety, Veracity, Velocity and Value) of Big Data that CEDA faces (Van Genderen et al, 2020). In this paper, these two challenges and CEDA's approach to them, have been explored.…”

“…In this paper, these two challenges and CEDA's approach to them, have been explored. It has been recognised that obstacles such as these require new developments in computing, data management, information extraction, and knowledge discovery (Van Genderen et al, 2020). At CEDA, increasing data volumes of large open access datasets, such as Sentinel, have driven the development of CEDA's filesets and the NLA.…”

“…With such a large and diverse archive there are many challenges that CEDA encounter. Some of which are described by the five Vs of Big Data (Volume, Variety, Veracity, Velocity and Value) (Van Genderen et al, 2020). This paper will address the challenges in archive storage (Volume) and data standards and formats (Variety) for open source data.…”

“…Geospatial technology also offers different possibilities in this respect, such as Virtual Reality and Augment Reality. As stated by [94], the demand for interactive experiences grows by different user groups (e.g., government decision-makers, ordinary citizens); and geospatial technologies contribute to these fields, such as for wearable technology to track steps, etc.…”

Rights, legal regulations, and practices often arise from societal and scientific developments, and societal transformations may originate from new legal regulations as well. Basic rights can be re-defined with advancements in science and technology. In such an evolutional loop, where mutual supply is obvious, combined legal and technological frameworks should be exercised and developed for practicing human rights. The main aim of this article is to propose a conceptual and methodological framework for the improvement of disability rights in the light of recent advancements in geographic information science (GIScience), in particular for those with motor disabilities, for whom questions related to “where” are essential. The concept of disability is discussed, considering different aspects, and a new methodological framework is proposed in which Geographic Information Systems (GIS), volunteered geographic information (VGI) and citizen science are at the core. In order to implement the framework at the national and international levels, a spatial data model should be developed first. The new data collection and interpretation approaches based on VGI, citizen science, and machine learning methods may help to realize equal rights for people with motor disabilities, by enabling improved access to education, health, and travel.
