2 ABOUT EARSC The EU EO Industry Applications & Case studies

3 EARSC About Us!

4 What is EARSC? Trade (non-profit) association founded in 1989, dedicated to helping European companies: providing services (including consultancy) or supplying equipment in the field of remote sensing. Foster the development of the European Geo-Information Service Industry Represent European geospatial-information providers, creating a sustainable network between industry, decision makers & users

5 EARSC s Members 97 members (87 full & 10 observers) from 22 countries in Europe

6 EARSC EO Services Value Chain

7 What does EARSC do? 1. Provide information to our members on programmes, policy and the sector; (business intelligence) 2. Maintain a knowledge of the industry ( i.e. statistics etc.) 3. Promote the industry and its capabilities by: Advocacy towards policy makers on issues of concern Organising events offering networking opportunities Creating links between EO services sector & other business sectors Awareness & media: e.g. eomag

8 Creating Networks of Interests: Communities International Technologies Users

9 Market Development & Promotion EO Portal (wiki): Information on Geospatial services EOpages: Brokerage site EOmag: Sector magazine Achievement Award OGEO: Link with Oil & Gas Industry Annual Report 9

10 Matter of Understanding

11 What YOU need & what WE can do Suppliers & Customers: common understanding of what can be offered Common description of EO products & services

12 EO Services thematic taxonomy Marine Security Thematic Areas Land Built Environment Atmosphere & Climate Disasters & Geohazards

13 What is the European Industry?

14 EARSC EO Services Industry Survey Third survey conducted by EARSC 2013 Provides a comprehensive view of the European EO Services Industry Covers the full range of EO service activities from satellite operators to value-adding & GI companies Coverage of Europe & Canada

15 Industrial Landscape 7877 Employees 510 Companies 1247m Revenues <10 EO employees < than 50 employees

16 Revenues & Employment 1247m Steady grow of around 10% p.a Evolution of total employment within 10 years

17 Activities Split of activities (based on 2016 revenues)

18 Customers & Markets 55% of the total Urban & Infrastructure: over 50% EARSC

19 Copernicus Companies interest in services Pregnant with potential

20 EO services sector is evolving very rapidly EARSC 2016

21 Current Situation Sentinel Satellites (7b EU investment): NEW ERA in EO Sentinel data: free & open data policy New & innovative satellite operators: eg. Planet New data sources are emerging: eg. UAV, crowdsoursing Large IT companies (eg. Google, Amazon) are seeking to establish global, geospatial, businesses DATA Many potential opportunities to exploit it

22 EARSC s Vision!!!

23 European Marketplace for EO services Global buyers can find easily the European EO services, data & products of all kinds

24 eomall EARSC s Vision! The Costanera Centre Mall for European EO Services

25 The benefits of EO

26 Big Spectrum of Applications Health services: EO, in-situ & meteo data can inform on conditions & risk Marine information: useful for commercial companies (shipping, fisheries, offshore) / citizens (coastal waters, beaches) / policy makers (pollution) / scientific communities (research) Citizen risk from natural hazards: Citizens (better information) / public security services: can better protect their citizens

27 Agriculture I want to know Which crop should I cultivate & in which location to achieve optimal sustainable yields? What kinds of seeds are required where & when? What will be my crop yield by end of the year? How much fertilizer is needed and how much should sustainably be applied and where? How to intensify while protecting the natural environment & ensuring the nutrients for the society?

28 Use of satellite imagery in agriculture Resolution Revisit Application Limits 300 m 1 km Daily Global crop production trends Not crop specific, difficult to separate area and phenology m Weekly Crop area, crop type, phenology, Requires massive data crop diversity/rotation processing, globally consistent methodology Free & Open m On demand Area measurement, detailed measures, precision farming Commercial, but plenty choice Costly, on sample basis only

29 Agriculture Sector Benefited from EO Precision agriculture: increase yields & productivity Main user: commercial large-scale agri-businesses Detailed agricultural information systems, including monitoring & control // Main user: government Applications that increase the efficiency of resource use, such as water, fertilizer or fuel // Main users: both individual farmers & (local) government Applications related to market information: geospatial component of rapid information exchange about prices of agricultural products // Main users: farmers and traders

30 Few Successful examples from our Members

31 Marine: Oil spill in Gulf Of Mexico Issue: explosion on the drilling rig causes the largest offshore oil spill in U.S. history Needs: plug the leak as fast as possible & see the evolution of the oil spill (risk assessment of onshore drift) EO Solution: SAR images coupled with offshore wind information: monitor & predict the evolution of the spill Results: most responsible actions as fast as possible

32 Disaster: Earthquake in Concepción, Chile Issue: 8.8-magnitude earthquake Needs: recent & reliable earth observation data & change detection analysis EO Solution: before & after imagery to detect changes of the affected areas only a few hours after the earthquake Results: Support to humanitarian aid community (information above vegetation changes, oceanic disturbances, flooding in urban area)

33 Security: Boarder control - Ship location Issue: small ship with immigrants in risky conditions Needs: detect the ship at shortest time possible EO Solution: RADARSAT2 Ultra-Fine image with 3 m of resolution Results: high time critical maritime surveillance when saving lives at sea is the main concern

34 Built Planning & operation of power farms Issue: The lack of wind data on sites of interest Needs: identification of the optimal site, in terms of availability of the wind resource EO Solution: data from ESA s Meteorological Missions satellites Results: users are able to quickly evaluate their return of the investment

35 Land Waste From Space Helping governments tackle the 72 billion problem of illegal waste by identifying illegal landfill sites

36 More cases Infrastructure Development Planning Infrastructure monitoring Assessing Natural Hazards & Climate Change Risks Mapping long term trends in deforestation Supporting agricultural & food security decisions
