Task Report back template • Short Background and objective • Milestones achieved to date • Expected milestones for 2008 • Extent of Participation/Recommendations for additional participants • Coordination points with other GEO work plan tasks • Potential risks that may impede completion of task • Gaps that have been identified that need to be addressed independently • Potential Contributions to the CB portal /GEO Portal • Expected products & date of completion of task • Expectations of task lead from CBC
Milestones to date • Feb, 2006, Brussels, CBC1, task definition • May, 2006, Sao Jose dos Campos, CBC2, initial survey results • Aug-Sep, 2006, ITC/NL, US, CB Strategic Plan writing team (co-chairs, Poc, …) • Dec, 2006, execution 2nd CB survey • Feb, 2007, Tenerife, CBC3, comm. results 2nd survey • June, 2007, Geneva, CBC4, preparations Seville, CT • Sep, 2007, Seville, Donor Conference, CBC5, results • Nov, 2007, Ministerial Summit, Cape Town, CB issues • Feb, 2008, CBC6, Hannover, • (New Work plan 2009-2011 elaboration)
Expected milestones 2008… • Progressing in CB gap identification for all SBA’s (using existing data + complements… ) • CB Best Practices Register <- provider-based Wiki • Ref. www.ieee-earth.org : Ruth Duerr • CB Needs inventory <- end user-based • GEO CB Services activated through GEO Portal, GEONETCast system,… • GEOSS CB promotion (via int’l conferences, worskhops..)
Working methods • Initiate (funded) project in regions e.g. calls EU FP7, ESA, e.g. (Share-Earth, Black Sea proposal, etc.) • Or other data gathering methods: wiki,..? • Coordinating meetings (calls) with other CB task leads & main contributors • Reporting • Organize CB (“do”) workshops (side events) at int’l prof. events (e.g. AARSE Oct, 2008, Accra, Ghana, EUMETSAT User Conf,…) on use of GEOnetcast (data access, sharing) – Open Source (freeware); = gaps & need evaluation in practice in regions
Coordination with other tasks • CB 07-01b has “Feeder role” to GEO Portal & Geonetcast CB Services and BP Registry • Close coordination requested with: • GEO Portal – CB Services entries AR-07-02 • Open Source CB task CB-07-01e • GEONETCast Education channel CB-06-04 • GEO Best Practices Registry DA-06-07 • Resource Mobilization, donors CB-07-01a • CB activities in SBA themes • CB for Water Resources Mgt. e.g. WA-06-07,.. • CB for Disaster Mgt. & Knowledge Network CB-07-02 • Others, NWP cap. building, ADC (SDI aspects),..
Some ITC GEO CB task inputs 2008.. • GEO CB Training-focussed Workshop: • AARSE 2008, pre event, 24-26 Oct, Accra, Ghana; GEOSS Interoperability for Water Security & Governance • EUMETSAT USER 2008 Forum, 4-7 Oct, Accra, Ghana • 52North/ILWIS Open Source system development, ITC’s free software environment for GEONETCAST data reception and application development, visualization • E.g. used in EU FP7 DEVCOCast, EU FP7 CEOP-AEGIS projects, etc. • FOSS4G conference, Cape Town, 25-28 Sep, 2008 • E-learning module (ITC), under design & development: GEONETCast for Water Security & Governance (and other SBA areas…)
CB-07-01b & GEOSS support • CBC consolidation of certain CB-07-01a-e and others (or cross-cutting…) with CB tasks (now under SBA theme tasks); • GEO Portal CB services (launch status?), • Web-based application pilots development, project ideas? • GEONETCAST • application development per SBA, incl. Open Source ware • GEO Best Practices Wiki…..(CB inputs) • GEO UIC (User needs…)
