1 ECV Inventory CCI 6 th Colocation, 29 th September 2015 Ed Pechorro, ESA Climate Office, Harwell, UK

2 Main Points What is an ECV Inventory Why does an ECV Inventory exist What is inside an ECV Inventory What is the status of the ECV Inventory What are the benefits & issues for CCI ECV data producers

3 The over-arching goal of WGClimate is to improve the systematic availability of CDRs through coordinated implementation, and further development of the architecture for climate monitoring from space WGClimate Terms of Reference (October 2013)

4 The over-arching goal of WGClimate is to improve the systematic availability of CDRs through coordinated implementation, and further development of the architecture for climate monitoring from space WGClimate Terms of Reference (October 2013) An inventory of ECVs provides a common tool for coordination & reporting.

5 The over-arching goal of WGClimate is to improve the systematic availability of CDRs through coordinated implementation, and further development of the architecture for climate monitoring from space WGClimate Terms of Reference (October 2013) An inventory of ECVs provides a common tool for coordinated development of the Climate Record pillar in context of Sensing and Applications

6 ECV Inventory is a snapshot of all ECV CDRs

7 ECV Inventory is the principle tool of WGClimate

8 ECV Inventory & WGClimate Objectives WGClimate coordination is designed to achieve 3 main objectives, involving ECV Inventory

9 ECV Inventory & WGClimate Objectives Objective #1 Building an inventory of existing ECV data records

10 ECV Inventory & WGClimate Objectives Objective #2 Making the most of available resources, to meet the unmet conditions (i.e. gaps) for ECV data production.

11 ECV Inventory & WGClimate Objectives Objective #3 Gap filling by optimising future missions.

40 Benefits & Issues to ECV Data Producers

41 Highlighting existing resource needs Identifying new resource needs Benefits to ECV Data Producers Inter-agency coordination Supporting science Reporting to GCOS and SBSTA

42 Overhead in describing ECV data products in a style consistent to rest of ECV Inventory Very time consuming Issues to ECV Data Producers Limited support Limited meaningfulness Questionnaire ambiguity

43 Overhead in describing ECV data products in a style consistent to rest of ECV Inventory WGClimate Quality Control. Very time consuming Work Plan WGClimate resourcing Issues to ECV Data Producers Limited support Increased WGClimate support. Limited meaningfulness 1. Transparency on WGClimate progress, 2. transparency on GCOS & SBSTA reporting, 3. Gap Analysis Questionnaire ambiguity 1. Questionnaire Guide, 2. Questionnaire refinement, 3. Support
