GEO Framework Update and Outlook, including highlighting of GEO priorities CEOS SIT-32 Barbara J. Ryan Director, GEO Secretariat April 26-27, 2017 Paris, France

GEO partnership 104 Members

GEO partnership 109 Participating Organizations

High level commitment to use EO for policy Ministerial Declaration , GEO Plenary XII, Mexico City, 2015 “Affirm that GEO and its Earth observations and information will support the implementation of, inter alia, the 2030 Global Goals for Sustainable Development, the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030, the United Nations System of Environmental and Economic Accounts, and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.”

GEO support to the 2030 Agenda EO to support the 2030 Agenda. GEO represented on Inter-Agency Expert Group of the UN Statistics Division. GEO is the Earth Observation Anchor Partner to the Global Partnership for Sustainable Development Data.

EO4SDG Case Studies GEO integrates use of EO data into the methodology of measuring and achieving SDG Indicators. This brochure (March 2017) gives graphic illustrations of the types of EO data sets and images available for improved policy and decision-making.

Goal 2 informed by GEO’s Agricultural Monitor

Goal 6 informed by The Ramsar Convention

Goals 11 & 13 informed by aerosol data

Goal 15 achieved through GFOI

Paris Agreement national reporting supported by GEO’s Carbon and GHG Initiative

Responding to the Paris Agreement Article 4 and Article 13 – National Reporting Reported five-yearly by parties, successive reductions in emissions Using existing methods and guidance; not validation Article 5 Mitigation Knowledge of evolution of sinks and sources Article 7 Adaptation (7.6) Strengthening cooperation, (7.7c) Research, systematic observation Article 10 Technology Transfer & Article 11 Capacity Development Article 14 Global stocktaking in the light of equity and the best available science: 2023, 2028… Article 15 Compliance Policy needs reliable GHG-related information

Informing policy agendas Presented to Parties at UNFCCC SBSTA-44, Bonn (19 May 2016) Presentation at UNFCCC COP-22 Earth Info Day (10 Nov 2016) Werner Kutsch, Director ICOS, presenting the GEO Carbon and GHG Initiative Upcoming Events: Presentation UNFCCC SBSTA-46, Bonn (10 May 2017) Organisation of a Side-Event at COP-23, Bonn

COP-23 Side Event UNFCCC IPC (Sep 2016) endorsed GEO to have independent eligibility to apply for side events and exhibits at future UNFCCC sessions ExCom Action 39.9: Secretariat to work with key partners (e.g. UNFCCC, IPCC, CEOS, GCOS, ICOS, etc.) to design a Side-Event at COP-23 Content to be defined with partners  Task Force Possible topics include: Carbon and GHG observations to support the implementation of the Paris Agreement Help for countries in their national reporting Role of (satellite) observations in the Refinement of the IPCC Guidelines

The Sendai Framework GEO’s Data Access for Risk Management (GEO DARMA) is building a synergy Framework for the Integration of Earth Observation Technologies into Disaster Risk Reduction.

UN Convention on Biological Diversity The UN Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) Aichi Targets can be measured by countries with support from the GEO Biodiversity Observation Network (GEO BON) Initiative for biodiversity observations.

GEO Data Providers Workshop April 20-21, Florence 93 organizations participated Hosted by CNR, ESA and GEO Secretariat Sponsored by Amazon webservices and development seed

New stations deployed throughout the system (around 20 per month) Shared user management between EUMETCast & CMACast for users of exchanged data Broadcast bandwidth increased in Europe (DVB-S2 service) to accommodate new satellites & products

Challenges Data access Interoperability Downstream services Broad, open data policies are needed for global monitoring and transparency Interoperability Data discoverability and access through federated systems Downstream services Applications and information are needed to make data useful for decision-makers

GEO promotes broad open data policies using strong economic arguments
