  1. - My STATUS Globcolour/Medspiration Workshop, Oslo, 20-22 November 2007

  2. Recap MyOcean objectives • Objective 1: Set up the Marine Core Service • A “system of systems” of 14 components (6 TACs, 7 MFCs, and 1 central) forming the backbone of the core service • 13 CORE PARTNERS, committed for operations • Objective 2: Ensure Operational Certification • A group of “engineering-operated” space companies and met offices • Objective 3: Ensure Sustainability through User involvement • A group of 23 “Member States” users & all EU “marine” countries are represented • Objective 4: Ensure Sustainability through Products ‘state-of-the-art’ quality • A group of 24 R&D partners, distributed all over Europe

  3. MyOcean consortium • Lead : MERCATOR OCEAN • Core partners from France, UK, Italy, Norway, Denmark, Spain, Greece, Netherlands, Ukraine, ... • 27 different countries, from EU, but also Norway, Israel, Russia, Canada, Morrocco, ... • 69 partners total

  4. Before MyOcean • Before GMES (<2002) • GOAL: Conducting research, developing network and capacities • The Global Ocean Data Assimilation Experiment (GODAE) initiated • GMES initial period (2002-2003) • GOAL: Demonstrate the “European maturity” of oceanography: • MERSEA Strand 1 • We proposed a system based on existing skills and capacities • GMES Implementation period (2004-2008) • GOAL: Build the main components of the GMES system • MERSEA IP for the marine component • Based on the integration of the European core of the existing systems and their networks

  6. GODAE Modelling/Assimilation Centers cf. GODAE Implementation plan • Australia : (BLUELINK): Regional Australian seas to Global Ocean • Japan : N.Pacific to Global Ocean • US (ECCO, HYCOM-US projects, …) : N.Atlantic and Global Ocean • Europe • France (MERCATOR) : N.Atlantic & Med Sea to Global Ocean • Norway (TOPAZ) : North Atlantic to Arctic • UK (FOAM) : N.Atlantic / Global ocean to Northern Shelves

  7. 3. MERSEA“Mersea Strand 1” 2003-2004“Mersea IP” 2004-2008

  8. MERSEA Strand-1/IP Objectives • develop at European level an “integrated capacity” for global to regional ocean monitoring and forecasting Share efforts, capacity, skills and data Develop a European system of systems

  9. The Marine Core Service • In october 2005, the “Marine Core Service” definition workshop • In 2006: The “MCS” GMES Implementation Group report : Ryder & al • GMES Operational period (2008-xxxx) • GOAL: Run the GMES European Service • MyOcean MCS for the marine component - moving from system integration to services.

  10. GMES schedule Today’s challenges : • Challenge (1): run the European core service on an operational basis • Challenge (2) : link with the European and member states main services and applications, (and the rest of the world) • Challenge (3) : organise on a sustainable basis the link between this operational European service and the existing research networks 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 ... GMES Phases Operational Implementation Initial Demonstrate the European maturity of oceanography Run the GMES marine core service, on an operational basis Build the GMES marine system, integrating the “core” capacities

  11. STILL A PROPOSAL A projectfor the European “Marine Core Service”

  12. User customized information (user products) Core information (ocean state) GMES input information (raw data) GMES Satellite and in situ networks Marine Core Service Marine Downstream Services GMES Marine Operational Users GMES Service outputs (others) A European Marine “core” service clearlydefined by the EC GMES Implementation Group

  13. MyOcean strenghts • A multi-year “experience” : preparing this “MCS” successful implementation through different GMES projects • The last ones are: MERSEA, Medspiration & Globcolor, Marcoast & Polarview, ... • A collection of well-assessed existing “systems”, we’re not starting from nothing ; we have already a very good basis of existing core systems • See for instance the Mersea “system of systems” • A community of providers, operators, users and researchers: we have powerful networking organization such as EuroGOOS • Organized by regions and linked to international (GOOS, GEO) • Gathering data Providers, model Operators and ... Users

  14. MCS MyOcean Challenges • Move from an inter- “National” cooperation to a “European” perspective  define a “european core” and focus on the links with national systems • The “ocean community” has multiple faces: Met Offices, Ocean centers, Research & Operational, Public & Private, Data only, model only, etc  define a functional architecture, assign the responsibilities, and be clear on the commitments • We have different definitions of “operationality” for our “operational oceanography” systems.  use only one : use the EC guidelines as the reference • Move from “science-push” to “user-pull”  set up a user-oriented organization: a user board, user commissioning forum, ... • Move from demonstration to full scale operations  a certification process, to deliver the “ready-for-operations” label

  15. Card 1: “WHY?” • Areas of Benefit • MyOcean will “provide the data for users in the marine sector, in other words the information for existing & new downstream services.” • Climate • Marine Environment • Seasonal and weather forecasting • Offshore • Maritime transport and safety • Fisheries • Research • General Public

  16. Card 2: “WHAT ?” (Service) • MyOcean will • “deliver regular and systematic reference information (processed data, elaborated products) on the state of the oceans and regional seas: • at the resolution required by intermediate users & downstream service providers, of known quality and accuracy, • for the global and European regional seas.” Data handling, Modelling and Assimilation Variables: T, S, UV, SSH, ice, Chl-a, ... Products: Catalog of reference products : pre-defined data fields, reanalysis, reports, ... Service: Real time, Delayed Mode, On request,

  17. Provider Provider MY-OCEAN European Core Service END - USERS OBSERVATIONS Provider Provider Card 3: “HOW FAR ?” The down stream Cut off The upstream cut-off upstream to our service ... is done (duty) by an observation agency or center (raw data) Example : Eumetsat SAF or the ESA PAC downstream to our service: ... is done (duty), or will be better done (skill) by a specialized agency, a European agency or a national center ; usually already in place Example : COASTAL SYSTEMS Data, Model European added-value

  18. Card 4: “TO WHOM ?” • The Key Users • MyOcean will deliver a service to • EU: The European Union • Users: European agencies (EEA, EMSA, EDA, ...) • MS: The Member States • Users: National Service Providers • IG: The Intergovernmental bodies • Users: MS and/or exec.bodies such as OSPAR, UNEP-MAP, HELCOM, ICES, ... EEA EMSA EDA ... Met Offices Ocean centers ... Env. agencies Research centers Navies, CoastGuards, .. OSPAR UNEP-MAP ICES ... CORE

  19. The users • The direct users of MyOcean products are • a) Member States service providers (intermediate users) that provide downstream services and products to regional / national / local users • b) European and Regional Agencies: EMSA, EEA, HELCOM, OSPAR, UNEP-MAP, Arctic Council, OOPC, GCOS, JCOMM, ... • A Core User Group composed by both a) and b) members will be set up • A much broader range of MyOcean users (end-users) is involved indirectly in the demonstrations and together with the MS providers carry out the assessment • SLAs will be established by WP17 following GSE approach • Existing relations ”Core service providers”  ”Intermediate users” built through MERSEA, Marcoast/Polarview, regional organizations (e.g. GOOS/EuroGOOS), ... will be continued.

  24. Selection of TACs & MFCs Rationale • Consolidation (operational, Cal/Val, R&D, service) of facilities developed over the past 5-10 years (MERSEA, Eurogoos, ESA projects including GSE, national projects, etc). • Criteria : maturity, skill, pan-European scale, operational capabilities, links with MFCs, Member state support (sustainability) • Global and regional services • Builds on Implementation Group Report

  29. What´s next • We expect to receive an official letter from the Commission in beginning December that will invite us to start negotiations: • The negotiation phase is assumed to take about 3-4 months (end in April 2008). • The negotiation and finalization of the DoW will have to provide a full outline of the MyOcean objectives and workplan in consistence with the 33 meuro of EU contribution. • MERSEA IP ends in April 2008 • Possible start of MyOcean in 3rd quarter of 2008.
