  2. Content • International Ice Charting Working Group • Ocean & Sea Ice SAF (EUMETSAT) • GMES project ICEMON

  3. International Ice Charting Working Group - IICWG - • All Northern Hemisphere Ice Services • Science and User Support + Data • Exchange of knowledge on use of EO data • Significant expert group to advice WMO etc. • Will take initiative to GEO as user group

  4. Ocean & Sea Ice SAF - EUMETSAT • Developed 1987-2002 • (Pre-) Operational 2003-2007 • Hopefully operational from METOP launch • Automatic production of multi-sensor ice products • Free use for all EUMETSAT members + other • Arhive and user support
