Implement

Efficient and effective global flows of data

ScenariosSlide5
Conclusions Highlights (1/2)
Increase in satellite data volume & complexity is outstripping the capacity of the national data handing infrastructure of GFOI many countriesIntroduction of L-8 & S-2 reduced # of countries able to use EO data for forest monitoring
BAU approach is considered unsustainable, and in general a move towards centralized data handling is viewed as a potential solution to make satellite-data support sustainable.Slide6
Conclusions Highlights (2/2)
Increased volumes and number of data sources require more effective data discovery and access tools.Cost/burden of preprocessing data
needs to be minimized to foster uptake. Agency-backed ARD products and tools are steps in that direction.Mechanisms will vary, but quality of ARD products needs to be assured by agencies.Potential of new/multiple data sources will only be realised if space agencies simplify their integrationSlide7
Conclusions Highlights (2/2)
Increased volumes and number of data sources require more effective data discovery and access tools.Agency-backed ARD products and tools are steps
in that direction to facilitate integration of new/multiple data sourcesreduce cost/burden of preprocessing to foster user uptakeassure quality of ARD productsSlide8
Recommendations
Currently divided into three groupingsSpace Data ProvidersCapacity Building PartnersUsers and CountriesComplementary and supportive of Future Data Architecture (FDA) workSlide9
Rec’s – Space Data Providers
Establish and promote widely-accepted ARD descriptions and specifications; Improved data access and data
discovery tools for multi-sensor search and ARD products;Promote community uptake of ARD, in particular to ‘data giants’ like Google and Amazon;Interoperability between Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2;Support pilot activities to exercise some of the fundamental and enabling elements of FDA;
Support the development of a model pilot end-to-end NFMS based on the GFOI components.Slide10
Rec’s – Capacity Building
CEOS should continue to develop discussions around the partnerships and geometries that will be required for success in relation to the growing emphasis on user engagementDevelopment financeUN agenciesData giantsSlide11
Rec’s – Users and Countries
Realising the gains offered by a move towards ARD requires significant communications, promotional, sales, and capacity building efforts by CEOS.CEOS agency governments can all help with the promotion of GFOI MGD by insisting on its adoption in all of their forest-related aid
programmes.Slide12
Data Coverage
Requests to be sent from SDCG to SIT and CEOS agencies:JAXA to make JERS-1 mosaics available online and to continue ALOS series systematic global acquisitionsCONAE to ensure SAOCOM-1A data is freely and openly available for GFOI purposes
CNES World Heritage programme making SPOT 1-5 data available. Helpful surrogate for ground truth since 1986; fill regional gaps in Landsat historical record - particularly over Africa. We encourage all CEOS space agencies to assist CNES in repatriation of SPOT 1-5 data to CNES to be consistently
processed and readily available to the global communitySlide13
