3 Outline Copernicus an introduction Specific service applications Access to in situ and reference data The downstream Industry 3

4 New name Copernicus: the new name for GMES Global Monitoring for Environment And Security 4

5 Copernicus an introduction A source of information for policymakers, scientists, business and the public at large A European response to global needs to monitor the environment, measure the effects of climate change and support emergency actions and civil security A user-driven programme of services for environment and security 5

6 Copernicus is An integrated Earth Observation system, combining space-based and insitu data to provide Earth System Modelisations and information services

7 Copernicus Space Infrastructure SENTINELS EO missions developed specifically for Copernicus Contributing missions EO missions built for purposes other than Copernicus but offering part of their capacity to Copernicus (EU/ESA Member States, EUMETSAT, Commercial, International) Technical coordination by the European Space Agency (ESA) 7

8 Copernicus in situ and reference data component In situ and reference data are overwhelmingly produced by Member States The transposition of INSPIRE is absolutely key It provides rules, common concepts, expectations

9 Copernicus Services Services monitoring Earth systems Horizontal services Land Marine Atmosphere Emergency Security Climate Change Output: Value-Added Information 9

10 Copernicus Data and Information Copernicus is a public service provides free, full and open access to data and products worldwide need to distinguish between data policy for SENTINEL data (free and open), Contributing missions and in situ data (data policy of the provider, INSPIRE) and Copernicus service information (free and open) Security restrictions may apply 10

11 INSPIRE and Copernicus Copernicus is built to be fully compatible with the Infrastructure for Spatial Information in the European Community (INSPIRE) Licensing conditions must allow the Chaining of environmental services

12 Outline Copernicus an introduction Specific service applications Access to in situ and reference data The downstream Industry 12

13 I. Land 1. Pan-EU Land Cover (5 High Resolution layers of main land-cover classes) 2. EU Local component ( hot spot zooming on areas of interest using VHR images for biodiversity monitoring) 3. Global component (Global Terrestrial Variables produced on near real time data and on a ten-daily basis) 13

14 Land monitoring pan-european component, reference year 2012 Product portfolio Corine Land Cover 2012 Sealed soil Forest type Tree cover density Grassland Wetlands Image mosaics Water bodies

19 III. Atmosphere 1. Air Quality for Europe (O3, NO, NO2, CO, SO2, PM10, PM2.5) 2. Global Atmospheric composition (Greenhouse gases, reactive gases, aerosol, biomass burning emissions, stratospheric O3) 3. Climate Forcing (CO2, CH4, monitoring and reanalysis of fluxes) 4. Solar Energy, UV (Ozone records, ultraviolet radiation) 20

31 Outline Copernicus an introduction Specific service applications Access to in situ and reference data The downstream Industry 32

32 Access to in situ and reference data The European Environmental Agency (EEA) through the GISC project is analysing the in situ and reference data needs of Copernicus Services INSPIRE is providing the much needed framework

33 In situ data for EMS and LAND services Data owned by Cadastre and Mapping authorities are: - Subject to licensing agreements: Austria, Czech Republic, Denmark; - Free only for public authorities (not for downstream services and commercial use): France, Poland - Free and open: Spain, The Netherlands (ex. Digital Aerial Ortophotos) Hydrographical information access via GRDC/WMO EuroGeographics agreement letter to countries, response received from 24 countries GIO Land grant agreement Annex III signed by 20 countries RDA exercise survey sent to countries

34 Finding solutions the EMS / EuroGeographics case NATIONAL REFERENCE DATA ARE ESSENTIAL FOR GIO EMS and GIO Land 2) MUCH MORE COULD HAVE BEEN DONE USING NATIONAL REFERENCE DATA (FÖMI) 1) GIO EMS PRECURSOR S (SAFER) RESPONSE TO MUD POLLUTION IN HUNGARY IN NOV 2010 MAP BASED ON WORLDVIEW-2 IMAGE

35 In situ availability: Atmosphere service Access to countries meteorological data to fulfil the official duties of Copernicus services should be facilitated via EUMETNET Emission inventory fall under international conventions and therefore are open and free for public sector; Information about the atmosphere, such as greenhouse gases, ozone, etc data access via WMO world data centres and other centres at EU level sustainability issues for some stations on national level MACC Ozone Stations EEA/EIONET Ozone Stations

36 In situ availability: Marine service Data types: sea level, temperature profiles, salinity profiles, oxygen, chlorophyll, ocean surface velocities, ocean current, drifting buoys, biogeochemical, aerosol data, current, sea ice Open and free data policy Agreement with EuroGOOS and technical arrangements with ROOSes Countries contribution international ressources: EuroArgo, FerryBox, EuroSites, etc sustainability issues Access to meteorological data via EUMETNET agreement

37 Outline Copernicus an introduction Specific service applications Access to in situ and reference data The downstream Industry 38

38 UPSTREAM Space Infrastructure Manufacturing of satellites Manufacturing of ground systems Manufacturing of launchers Launcher Services Ground Services (control of satellites) In-situ Infrastructure Manufacturing of in-situ infrastructure (groundbased, airborne and ship- or buoy-based sensors) MIDSTREAM Data providers Acquisition of data Production of data Distribution of data Dissemination of data DOWNSTREAM Value-adding services Adaptation, modification of data tailored to user s needs Integration with data from other sources Applications End users (agriculture, constructions, navigation, utilities, insurance, ) 39

39 Copernicus data and information provide long term monitoring continuous monitoring free and open documented common scales across regions fast update

40 What do the Downstream Industry want? Long term view on the data and information available To influence the types of data and information provided Data and Information in higher level formats Data and information easily discoverable and accessible Level playing field

41 Conclusions Copernicus data and information are valuable public goods Downstream Industry should invest in processing huge volume of Copernicus data and information to provide innovative products Copernicus is giving back to Member States, businesses and citizens their investment 42
