  1. GEONETCastEUMETSAT EO PortalProduct Life Cycle Slide: 1

  2. Major Components • GEONETCast is a distribution system using communication satellites and low cost, self-contained, stand alone, off-the-shelf reception stations. • The global GEONETCast system, supported by 3 regional broadcasts, was made operational in early 2008. • Provide near-global coverage with established data exchange between regional broadcasts. • CMA (CMACast, over Asia and western Pacific), • EUMETSAT (EUMETCast, over Europe, Africa, and Americas) • NOAA (GEONETCast Americas, over the Americas and Caribbean) • GEONETCast Product Navigator provides a collection discovery service.

  3. Global Coverage

  4. Why GEONETCast for Users? • Receiving stations use low-cost, off the shelf DVB-S broadcast technology – Receive station cost ~ $2,000 - $3,000. • Wide range of products available …. climate, weather, agriculture, air quality, disasters, and more, in support of GEOSS Societal Benefit Areas. • GEONETCast is a very effective way to guarantee delivery of products and data-services to Users. • Especially well suited to high data volumes, or regular production, or poor comms infrastructure.

  5. User Engagement • Each region working directly with its Users; • In Europe there are over 3500 EUMETCast stations; • In Africa, there are about 250 EUMETCast stations; • In the Asia/Pacific region, there are approx 300 CMACast stations; • In the Americas there are about 75 stations deployed.

  6. User Engagement (continued) • Training and Capacity Building: • EU FP7 funded research projects (DevCoCast, EAMNET, AEGOS, MIA-VITA); • EU development funded projects (AMESD); • Cooperation with existing training networks (ITC in Africa, Chloro-GIN-Africa, Univ of Maryland/Puerto Rico); • EUM & WMO initiative to build capacity in Balkan and East European states (DAWBEE); • Cooperation with NASA-SERVIR and WMO. • Coordinated User Requirement gathering: • WMO Conference on RA III & IV in Brazil in Feb • WMO Pacific and RA I groups ongoing.

  7. EUMETSAT EO Portal • To provide EUMETSAT users a single point of online accesstoall EUMETSAT data and dissemination services. This allows Users to discover, search, order and subscribe to operational services. • To expand the above portal to allow EUMETSAT Users to discover, search, order and subscribe … from partner agencies, e.g. CNES, NOAA, WMO, ESA, etc. • To allow partner agencies to discover, search, order and subscribe to EUMETSAT data and services via a set of programmatic, interoperable services. • And to do that using internationally recognised standards and complying with the INSPIRE EU directive .

  8. EUMETSAT EO Portal • central access point • encapsulates legacy applications and offers a harmonised user interface • discover, search, order / subscribe to data and services • supports OGC/HMA, WMO, GCI, INSPIRE

  9. Project History / Status • 2010: • implementation of the OGC HMA Order Service • Z39.50/SRU Adaptor implementing WMO/WIS z39.50/SRU interface • implementation of WMS Server and WMS Client towards an operational service • first version was deployed into Amazon EC2 Cloud • Started development of Product Navigator 2.0 based on last release of con terra´s terraCatalog 3.0 • 2011: • Collection Search via HMA CIM Interface • beta testing phase of WMS implementation • HMA interface integration with ESA • Data Centre Client development (browser based)

  10. Product Lifecycle - Basic steps • Product definition • Product development • Engineering verification and validation • Product validation • Service implementation into operations • Continuous improvement Slide: 10

  11. Product Validation Phase • Status of engineering verification and validation • Generation of long-term statistics on product quality, availability, completeness and timeliness • User evaluation of the new/changed product • Production/finalisation of the Product User Manual • Production/finalisation of the Product Validation Report

  12. Product Status Indicators • Development • Demonstrational • Pre-operational • Operational • Superseded • Discontinued

  13. And finally ..... Delivery to Users • GEONETCast/EUMETCast • GTS/RMDCN • Internet
