DI-06-09: Use of Satellite for Risk Management

Led by WMO and China

With Reference to a multi-hazard approach, define and facilitate implementation of a virtual constellation for risk management.
Development of dedicate software tools to be used in short term, to facilitate the analysis of coverage for critical coverage for critical observations and, in medium term, to implement the user interface with the operators for products ordering and retrieval, and to perform data integration and reprocessing.

The task will include:

Origin of the task team

Use of Satellite for risk management has been indicated as Task DI-06-09 in GEO 2007-2009 Work Plan. The medium term goal is to implement the user interface with the operators for products ordering and retrieval and to perform data integration and reprocessing.

Coordination among agencies has established such as Sentinel Asia and ASIAES

to make use of space related technologies for disaster and risk management.

To develop a prototype to support the medium goal of DI06-09

using existing tools in Sentinel Asia and ASIAES developed by WGISS member agencies

Objectives

To make use of technologies and tools developed by WGISS/CEOS to support GEOSS task DI 06-09 To prototype user interface for ordering and retrieval of relevant data integration service for better access of satellite imageries of Natural disaster risk areas in Asia.

Implement strategy

June 07 Sep 08 (1 year 3 months) June 2007 September 2007

To coordinate with the DI 06-09 task leaders (CSA and CNES), who shall contribute for this task To design a prototype

October 2007 April 2008 (WGISS 24)

To develop a prototype to support task requirement using tools available in Sentinel Asia and ASIAES systems To test capability of the prototype To document project summary and report

April 2008-September 2008 (WGISS 25)

Deliverables

User interface

For ordering and retrieval of relevant data Data integration services.

Potential External Partnerships

Space Agencies in Asia Pacific

Relationship with WGISS Goal

NDM activities relate to access, archiving and exchange of satellite images. The systems will be also interconnected and interoperable NDM will coordinate with CEOS and Non CEOS members.. NDM will provide forums through international coordination such as Sentinel Asia, ASIAES project, and APAN network
