  1. GMES Urban Services ESA – GMES Service Element www.gmes-urbanservices.com by Daniel CARRASCO INDRA ESPACIO. Madrid. SPAIN A project from the European Space Agency GMES Service Element – Consolidation Activities

  3. Changes 1965 - 2003 Land Use Map (Erfurt) Thuringian Authority for Environment and Geology Detailed land use map based on a legend evolved from JRC’s MOLAND. 1:10,000 scale GUS Level IV legend

  4. EO applications for Spatial Planning 50 ha 5 ha • Loss of soil by sealing What is the rate of built-up area expansion? ...

  5. From Core Products to Information Systems • Core product: multiresolution Land Use / Land Cover • High Level: Putting all together in a single Information System to support the implementation of the URBAN THEMATIC STRATEGY • Indicator generation • Other layers...

  6. Urban areas covered by GUS (2003-04) 2003 2004 • Lanzarote (Es) • Alicante (Es) • Toulouse (Fr) • Foggia (It) • Saxony (De) • Thuringia (De) • Turnhout (Be) • Ostende (Be) • Bari (It) • Riga (Lituania) • Bordeaux (Fr) • Vitoria (Es) • DG-Regio, EEA • Foggia (It) • Thuringia (De) • San Fernando-Cádiz (Es) • Accra (Ghana) • Leipzig (De) • Mortsel (Be) • Antwerp (Be) • Budapest (Hu) • Liege (Be) • Bari (It) • Treviso (It) • Brest (Fr) • Bucarest (Ro) • DG-Regio, EEA Regional Municipality EU

  7. GMES: The road ahead – IMPLEMENTATION PHASE • GUS project ends in 2004-Q4. What’s next? • 3 projects related to Land Use / Land Cover are merging for implementation : SAGE + GUS + CoastWatch = GSE-LAND • “Implementation phase” (2005-08) means the selection of those services in the portfolio best fitted today for operations and make final preparations for operations

  8. Relationship GMES - ESPON • Approach fostered by DG-Regio • We are more than a producer of geoinformation • We aim to set the standards for the next generation of large LU/LC mapping in Europe • ESPON (and follow up?) can exploit GMES products • Participate actively in the product definition through user groups

  9. Defining the Urban Areas to be mapped in 2005-08 • We need to specify which cities/regions to map in the next project GSE-LAND • Guess number on service volume: 50 cities + regions TBD • Future sites: User involvement is needed (city or regional authority) • Choosing from: • Eurocities (130) / Enviromental Committee (30) • Urban Audit 2 (250) • DG-Env (top 500 urban areas; greater than 100,000 inhab.) • ESPON?

  10. Urban Areas to be mapped in 2005-08 • ESPON can make recommendations on the areas to be mapped by GMES • ESPON can become an active user and provide an assessment of products
