  1. WGCapD: Working Group on Capacity Building and Data Democracy Committee on Earth Observation Satellites • Dieter Hausamann, PhD, DLR, WGCapD • Prakash Chauhan, PhD, ISRO, WGCapD Chair • Nancy Searby, PhD, NASA, WGCapD Vice Chair • WGISS-46 • Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany • 22 – 25 October 2018

  2. Expectations Summary of WGCapD deliverables within CEOS Work Plan (2018-2020) Potential WGCapD & WGISS synergies Overview of Presentation

  3. Global activities • CB-28, 30, 31: MOOCs on Radar Backscatter, SAR applications, LCLUC • CB-29: Webinar series on multiple topics, e.g. GEOGLAM, Hyperspectral Remote Sensing and disasters • Regional activities – training in GEO regions • CB-20, 26: AmeriGEOSS, AfriGEOSS - complete • CB-27: AOGEOSS • CB-32: Regional hands-on training in land cover land use change • CB infrastructure • CB-21: portal-based access to CB and training resources • WG collaborations • CB-19: SDG AHT awareness building • FDA-5: FDA´s awareness building and outreach – joint with WGISS CEOS Work Plan 2018-2020v0 WGCapD’s 11 deliverables

  4. CB-19: SDG AHT awareness building • Due Q4 2018 • Liaison from SDG AHT to WGCapD for this action: Argie Kavvada/NASA • Planning awareness webinar to CEOS and associated community • SDG AHT collaboration for upcoming workplan • Start with 2 mature indicators 6.6.1 (water) and 11.3.1 (Urban) • Determine if need to name a different liaison for these next steps • FDA-5: FDA´s awareness building and outreach • Due Q2 2019 • WGISS Technology subgroup co-chairs to serve as liaison to WGCapD • WGCapD will support WGISS in their development of a series of awareness-level (1 hour?) webinars targeting potential users of FDA technologies. • Potential topics include: Analysis Ready Data and CARD4L, Exploitation and Application Platforms, Data cubes, Data and Information Access Services (DIAS’s) WG Collaborations

  5. CB-21: portal-based access to CB and training resources • Due Q4 2020 • NASA, DLR, ISRO • First activity within this broader action – implement consistent training calendar by Agencies and WGCapD • Endorsed at CEOS Plenary. CB Infrastructure

  6. Three Pilot Efforts • NASA, DLR and CEOS SEO will implement the training calendar for its capacity building program to advertise trainings offered by ARSET and by SERVIR, through EOCollege and for WGCapD, respectively. • Work with EUMETSAT for revised API and to train someone in how to use and maintain the calendar. • Each pilot will define their “front end” based on their understanding, compare their approaches, and together agree on the approach that should be recommended for implementation for the WGCapD calendar. • The WGCapD calendar design will be provided to the WGCapD participating agencies for final review and implementation by Q3 2019 Approach for Implementing Training Calendar

  7. Background: • WGCapD provides training resources on CEOS website and INPE learning center, and is included in the GEOCAB portal. • WMO Global Campus is implementing an open source library catalog. • Questions/discussion points • Advantages of different approaches • Other approaches? WGISS feedback? • What would be useful for CEOS agencies, WGCapD? • Next steps? Collecting Training Resources

  8. Potential WGCapD-WGISS synergies (1) • What could CapD be doing in the future & can WGISS help? • Collection of single Agency resources discoverable at each Agency’s storage location • CapD collection housed together and discoverable • User interface tailored for each end user class • Users: decision makers, policy makers, EO professionals and scientists • Use cases and trainings available by GEO region, national, sub-national scales • Use cases and trainings available by GEO societal benefit area

  9. Potential WGCapD & WGISS synergies (2) • What could CapD be doing to help WGISS? • Raise awareness of the value of EO data products and services to user communities, including • Support to locate and access data, products, and tools • Targeted training workshops • Support CEOS initiatives and helps WGs and VCs undertake their own capacity building initiatives • E.g. guidance on best practices • Build awareness of WGISS efforts in CapD Workshops • What else?
