  1. GMES Global Monitoring for Environment and Security Mauro FACCHINI GMES Bureau SatExpo Europe 2010

  2. Origins of EU involvement in Space Policy 1998/1999: Common resolution on the reinforcement of the synergy between the ESA and the European Community (EC) 2004: ESA/EC Framework Agreement Progressive development of overall European Space Policy by providing a common basis and appropriate operational arrangements for efficient and mutually beneficial ESA/EC cooperation. Creation of Space Council (SC), High-Level Space Policy Group (HSPG) and ESA/EC Joint Secretariat. 2000: European Strategy for Space jointly adopted with a view to strengthen foundations (technology and access to space), enhancing scientific knowledge and reaping the benefits of space for markets and society 2003: ‘EC Green and White Papers’ Identification of space as a tool to support EU sectoral policy goals such as strategic non-dependance, knowledge-based society, economic growth, security and defence 2003: ESA ‘Agenda 2007’ Adaptation of ESA to better respond to the needs of emerging (public or private) customers for space, incl. a new relationship with the EU

  3. Priorities of European Space Policy • Flagship applications of European Space Policy • GalileoThe European initiative for a state-of-the-art global navigation satellite system, providing a guaranteed global positioning service under civilian control (constellation of satellites) • GMES The European initiative for global monitoring for environment and security purposes, integrating space-based and in situ applications and services (pre-existing infrastructure + 5 new Sentinel families of satellites) Develop adequate funding instruments & schemes

  4. What is GMES? • Global Monitoring for ENVIRONMENT and SECURITY • An independent earth observation system for Europe • The largest fleet of satellites and atmosphere/earth-based monitoring instruments in the world • An end user-focused program of services for environment and security • Joined-up information for policymakers, scientists, businesses and the public • Europe’s response to the global need for environment and climate monitoring

  5. What is the objective? ...to provide information services to policy-makers and other users EARTH OBSERVING SYSTEMS (space, airborne, in-situ) Information PUBLIC POLICIES (Environment & Security) Needs (policy driven) Space AgenciesIn-situ Observing systems Scientific CommunityEO Value Adding Industry National Governments and AgenciesEuropean Union InstitutionsInter-Governmental Organisations (IGOs) Non Governmental Organisations (NGOs)

  6. EU Added value • Relevance of EU level taking into account subsidiarities • Overall “information chain”: from observation to information required by the users • “System of systems“: mutualisation & long term sustainability of capacities & resources • Build on existing capacities in MS

  7. GMES Overall View Public USERS Policy Makers Private, Commercial & & What is their need? Example Services Provided Farming Oil Spill Tracking Air Quality Flood Surveillance InformationServices Security Atmosphere Emergency Marine Land Sustainable observation In Situ Infrastructure Space Infrastructure & OBSERVATION

  8. GMES Components GMES is an EU led initiative In-situ component – led by EEA • Observations mostly within national responsibility, with coordination at European level • air-, sea- and ground-based systems and instruments Space Component – led by ESA • Sentinels - EO missions developed specifically for GMES: • Contributing Missions - EO missions built for purposes other than GMES but offering part of their capacity to GMES (EU/ESA MSs, EUMETSAT, commercial, international)

  9. GMES Services Monitoring of Earth systems Land Marine Atmosphere Horizontal applications Security Emergency Climate

  10. GMES Services Land • Land use • Forests • Urban planning • Water quality • Crop production • … Urban Atlas

  11. GMES Services Marine • Maritime transport • Ocean resources • Sea temperature • Sea level rise • Oil spill monitoring • … Sea surface temperature

  12. GMES Services Atmosphere • UV monitoring • Solar radiation • Air quality • Aerosols • Ozone • ….

  13. GMES Services Emergency • Floods • Fires • Earthquakes • Tsunamis • Land slides • … Extension of burnt ares

  14. GMES Services Security • Maritime surveillance • Border control • External actions • Civil security • … Cross-correlation of active and passive information

  15. GMES Services Climate Change • Adaptation • Mitigation • Simulation • Enforcement • Tracking • …

  16. Expected benefits • Benefits: • Short term: support to the implementation of running policies and legislation • Medium Term: support to the definition and formulation of new policies • Longer Term: impacting the formulation and implementation of policies with a global reach • “Failing to act on climate change would reduce global GDP by at least 5% annually, while mitigation would use 1% of global GDP annually”, • Sir N. Stern, Former Chief Economist of the World bank.

  17. Socio-economic benefits Cat.1(Efficiency Benefits): 2786 M€ Cat.2(European Policy Formulation Benefits): 14582 M€ Cat. 3(Global Action Benefits): 17298 M€ Total benefits (up to 2030): Efficiency Saving Air Quality Marine Flooding Conflict Resolution Humanitarian Aid Seismic Application Forest Fires ‘Other’ risk & Civil Security Appl. Forest Ecosystems (EU) Climate Change – Adaptation Deforestation – Climate Desertification Desertification – Ecosystem 15,000 0 10,000 5,000 Based on PWC study

  18. Some key milestones 1998 20002001+2005200720082009 2012+ Initiation of GMES, Baveno ManifestoGothenburg EU Summit “establish by 2008 an operational European capacity for … GMES”Investments by ESA and EC on servicesEU initiates “Fast-track” services; GMES becomes ‘flagship’ ESA C-MIN in Berlin funds Phase-1 of GSC Segment-1ESA Phase-2 of Segment-1 approved EC-ESA agreement on GMES signedESA C-MIN funds GSC Segment-2 EC approves financing for GMES initial operations (GIO) Launch of first GMES Sentinels

  19. Next programmatic steps • Obtain operational funding, required before and after 2014 • Cost analysis • Prepare GMES Governance, for build-up and operational programme • GMES legislative programme • Consolidate GSC Long Term Scenario

  20. Financing Public financing for GMES with a modular approach R&D R&D Initial Operations EU Operational programme 2004 2009 2011 2013 2014 2006 2023 2017

  21. Overall financial context

  22. Conclusion • GMES is implemented through public investment • GMES has a positive impact on economy, growth, jobs and innovation • Full and open data policy: key success factor
