1 Global Monitoring for Environment and Security Final Report for the GMES Initial Period ( ) Version The GMES initiative was launched in May 1998 in Baveno and adopted by the ESA and EU Councils respectively in June and November Member States have shown a keen interest in GMES from the early days, by hosting several high-level conferences and workshops to further progress on the GMES definition (Lille, Stockholm, Brussels, Noordwijk, Athens and now again under the Italian Presidency Baveno). For the Initial Period ( ), GMES efforts have been implemented according to a shared EC/ESA Action Plan, with an initial emphasis on agreed thematic priorities, most of them referring directly to the 6th Environmental Action Plan of the European Community. The objectives of the Initial Period were twofold: To deliver of a set of pilot information and products for these priority themes, based on existing European capabilities, allowing to assess the current technical, organisational and institutional capabilities to meet users needs; To prepare a report proposing how to progress through the next GMES period ( ). This document is the final report for the GMES initial period ( ). It proposes a way forward for the period as requested by the Council of the European Union of 13 November 2001 and the Council of ESA of 19 June In accordance with the GMES EC Action Plan (COM(2001)609), this report has been generated by a joint EC/ESA team and further reviewed and commented by the EU and ESA Member States through the GMES Steering Committee (GSC). A number of working groups under the GSC have made valuable contributions to the efforts that have lead to this report. 1
2 Lessons from GMES Initial Period Activities deliver to learn and assess to structure strands thematic and assessment projects - Initial Period of GMES ( ) related activities of the Member States and the Commission services (JRC) Infrastructure for Spatial Information in Europe (INSPIRE) initiative The activities of the GMES Steering Committee expert groups more than 400 organisations, more than 150 experts in working groups BUT intermediate results at this stage are not yet fully conclusive HOWEVER.general findings and conclusions can be made User needs are significantly different depending on where they operate in the policy implementation and monitoring cycle 2 Information Needs and Policy requirements have been covered by C.Day. What lessons did we learn from the GMES Initial Period? Projects and related activities, GSC expert groups role of these projects and expert acticity is to bring together the many users and suppliers of information around their common themes of interest and build up gradually a detailed understanding of the user s needs for information and the feasibility to satisfy them more than 400 organisations All of these organisations are engaged in various aspects of environment and security implementation as well as information service provision and development. These include a variety of public sector end user organisations. The private sector, both through Small and Medium Enterprises and international industrial concerns participate mainly as service providers and system integrators. In addition there is an important participation of European and national R&D organisations together with inputs from expert consultants. Intermediate results, not conclusive The majority of GMES-related thematic and assessment projects started their activities in the first semester of Therefore, their intermediate results at this stage are not yet fully conclusive although significant progress has already been achieved through the policy analysis and the intensive interaction between user and supplier communities in defining the information products and delivery constraints. a number of general findings and conclusions regarding the general user and information needs can already be drawn at this stage. User needs are significantly different depending on where they operate in the policy implementation and monitoring cycle 2
3 Lessons from GMES Initial Period Activities Information needs are often implicit rather than explicit for policy review and formulation : When more explicit (Water Framework Directive, Air Quality, etc.) more detailed information requirements agreed but not yet fully implemented Reporting obligations place an increasing burden on Member States - critically assess the information demands - develop the capacity to transfer and use information across the different administrative levels Implementation of policies: Happens at the local and regional levels where information needs are detailed and specific. Information often of unsatisfactory or undefined quality, based on proprietary standards and managed through closed systems and therefore not sufficiently accessible to users. 3 3
4 Lessons from GMES Initial Period Activities Users Require: Improved Data Integration and Information Management Continued and timely delivery of quality, certified and documented data from Earth observation sources and in situ measurements and surveys Commonly needed core data for policy formulation, review and implementation Methodologies and tools for forecasting, planning and decision-making Policies aimed at reducing duplicated data collection and to assist and promote the harmonisation, broad dissemination and use of data Co-ordinated action to better understand the current gaps and deficiencies in the data collection and information supply infrastructures 4 4
5 Lessons from GMES Initial Period Activities Users Require: continued research and technology development to address identified deficiencies in the provision documented quality and use conditions of existing data held by the public sector according to common agreed European and international standards open standards for data and services based on existing and emerging European and international standards and translation services co-ordinated infrastructures and services allowing anybody to query, view, access and trade the information held by distributed public and private sector bodies a data policy framework and sharing agreements between bodies in the public and private sector 5 BUT above all, the ultimate beneficiaries of all such information services - the citizens - need more reliable and comprehensive information on the environment and on the modern threats they are facing. This information has to meet their needs and concerns and has to be presented in the form that is easily accessible and understandable 5
6 Socio-economic Benefits EUROPEAN COMMISSION Based on a preliminary socio-economic impact study potential benefits through: An improvement in monitoring capability leading to better data and information access, and effort on characterising environmental events and issues. A better understanding of events based on a more comprehensive integrated service bringing together diverse but complementary data sources and stakeholders An improved capability for forecasting and prediction. Several issues and opportunities elaborated in the report with estimates of potential quantitative benefits 6 6
7 Socio-economic Benefits EUROPEAN COMMISSION GMES provides direct users with improved information on the environment and civil security, but the vast majority of its benefits will accrue to society as a whole as indirect or social benefits. In addition. Political and strategic benefits An autonomous capability to monitor the environment and independence in assessment of environmental and security issues are benefits of GMES that are of strategic value to Europe. Political benefits - both internal to the Union, through better information and participation of its citizens to the societal debate (good governance), And external to the Union, by contributing to and showing leadership in global initiatives. 7 7
8 GMES Capacity in Services - Users of services Public institutions and agencies at the European (and global), national and regional level together with industries (including SMEs), NGOs and the general public. A step-wise implementation Criteria EU policy priorities Technical feasibility/maturity Benefits and added value Cost efficiency Maturity of the user community 8 8
9 Proposed Service Categories Period Global Climate Change (the Kyoto Protocol) and Sustainable Development European environmental stresses and pressures European civil protection The Common Agricultural, Fisheries and Regional Development Policies Development and Humanitarian aid EU Common Foreign and Security Policy 9 9
10 In Situ Observing Systems Situation Today Considered a critical limiting factor for GMES service development and space data integration Scope covers sensor networks and survey data A number of in situ observing systems are in place or under development. Their usefulness and quality varies, depending on the accuracy, calibration, continuity, density, and maintenance. Managed by a wide variety of public sector bodies. EU and national environmental legislation, voluntary collaboration agreements, and global international and regional conventions are driving factors
11 In Situ Observing Systems Situation Today In EU important gaps and inconsistencies still exist for air, water, land-use, etc. Global terrestrial, ocean and atmosphere networks remain to be fully implemented. Basic EU geographical data to address cross border issues such as floods or future Kyoto protocol verification are underdeveloped or not sufficiently accessible. Population and socio-economic survey data not sufficiently and not timely available to assess and mitigate impacts of natural and technological hazards. The current in-situ deficiencies impact negatively on the quality and costefficiency of the GMES services and limit the added value of space observations. Major improvements to the in-situ capacity are required at all levels
12 In Situ Observing Systems 2008 Objectives Improved co-ordination in the deployment and operations of the different thematic in-situ networks and surveys shall be in place. Gaps are to be closed and deficiencies removed gradually. Long-term sustainable operation shall be assured. In situ data will be available to: mitigate natural and technological hazards at local and regional levels support the reporting and implementation of environmental legislation and international conventions support crisis management and conflict prevention on priority areas outside Europe
13 Data Integration and Information Management EUROPEAN COMMISSION Situation Today A number of obstacles limit efficient data integration and information management: Standards and application of documentation Data and information access (technical and policies) Interoperability (between systems and data) Modelling (consensus, quality, validation) Concerted actions and networking not sufficiently in place (such as Eumetnet/Eumetsat, EEA Eionet) An operational data management infrastructure is missing 13 13
14 Data Integration and Information Management 2008 Objectives a European shared information capacity shall be in place Open, seamless communication, interoperable enabling user service autonomy; A federated architecture, enabling systems to grow and evolve A simple, modular architecture Self-configurable, programmable and scalable Highly dependable, resilient to security threats or breakdown Data secured Quality of service Ubiquity of access, including global reach 14 14
15 Data Integration and Information Management EUROPEAN COMMISSION 2008 Objectives From a set of unconnected networks to a fully integrated network and services, where each user might participate in several virtual networks, one being the original regional or national network and others being pan- European theme-focused networks Towards a European Spatial Data Infrastructure (ESDI) based on INSPIRE: open standards for data documentation, data models and services tools and services allowing anybody to query, view, access and trade the information and data a data policy framework, both at European and global level, and a range of data and information sharing agreements ESDI + high-speed technology networks (GRID&GEANT) + space and in-situ + networks (EEA/EIONET, EUMETNET/EUMETSAT, etc.) = the European shared information capacity 15 15
16 Research Technology Development and Demonstration EUROPEAN COMMISSION Enhancement of environment monitoring networks and associated instrument technologies; Improvement of models and the capacity for analysis, forecasting, planning and decision support. Improvement of interoperability and linkage between monitoring systems (space and in situ), data sources (environmental data and socio-economic data) and monitoring standards; Improved accessibility to long-term data archives, implementation of metadata standards, actions to facilitate information retrieval and dissemination; Knowledge development and exchange including basic research on environmental processes, methodologies, training and capacity building
