Objectives and Activities “… to succeed, we need partnerships with industry, academia, and nongovernmental organizations … We look for industry to organize itself … to put forward its ideas, needs, and concerns.” Our Mission is to promote & support the understanding and use of Earth observations - VADM Conrad C. Lautenbacher, Jr. (Ret.) Under Secretary for Oceans & Atmosphere Co-Chair, Group on Earth Observations Alliance Activities: Architecture Workshop Forum on Earth Observations Expertise and Community Resources Expert Meetings Sponsorships The Alliance Works to: Represent a broad & global voice Communicate amongst organizations Partner with Users Educate

Identifying Target Observables Within the overall context of a system of systems framework with observing systems, modeling systems, and decision support systems… Global Change observable categories –Climate – Essential Climate Variables (ECVs) –Weather – Environmental Data Records (EDRs) –Solid Earth and Natural Hazards (SESWG Report)

Decision Support enabled by Earth Observations Decision quality information integrated at regional centers enables adaptation to local conditions Drought for agriculture Precipitation for water availability Wind for energy availability Temperature for public health

What can we do for Global Climate Change monitoring? Identify target observables Evaluate capacity of current and planned systems to acquire and deliver target observables Identify gaps in coverage (geographic, spatial, temporal, radiometric) Contribute innovation & technology development to close gaps Advocate for solutions Promote value of EO to society & the economy Work Together with a Global Voice

System of Systems Approach 1.Enterprise Architecture 2.Comprehensive & Interoperable 3.Research and Operations (R&O) 4.Sustained Capabilities 5.Net-Centric Approach 6.Integrated Solutions 7.Delivering Benefits to Society
