Capacity Development & Earth Observation for Looking after Water in Africa Benjamin Koetz Directorate of Earth Observation Programmes European Space Agency

New Technology Integration Sustainable EO uptake in Developing countries Continuous & Reliable Observations (EO & in-situ) Knowhow & Technical Expertise Technical Capacity for Data Processing & Management Integration in local Decision Making Processes Institutional Capacity: User Engagement & Partnerships Training and R&D Community Building Training and R&D Community Building Software tools & Infrastructure Sustainable (Free) & Operational Data

EO Science 2.0: Integration of new Technologies

Open Data Access: Democratization of EO data 2014 & 2016 Sentinel 1 – SAR imaging All weather, day/night application e.g. floods, water bodies, wetlands 2015 & 2016 Sentinel 2 – Multi-spectral imaging Land applications: urban, forest, agriculture,.. Continuity of Landsat, SPOT Sentinel 3 – Ocean and global land monitoring Wide-swath ocean color, global vegetation, land/sea surface temperature, altimetry, lake water quality Long-term Continuity and Access to suitable EO data Free, full and open data policy* 2015 & 2016 OPERATIONAL

Sentinel-2 water body monitoring Simulated time-series - Egypt

Objective: Enable water authorities to improve IWRM by exploiting Earth Observation (EO) technology Implement an operational Water Observation Information System (WOIS) for monitoring water resources Developed in collaboration with African water authorities Transboundary Observation Capacity Transparent tool for Reporting & IWRM Sustainability through Open Source & CB Open Source Tools: Water Observation Information System Enabling the Use of Earth Observation Data for Integrated Water Resource Management in Africa with the Water Observation and Information System Radoslaw Guzinski et al., Remote Sens. 2014, 6(8), ; doi: /rs Open Source WOIS 3.0 in April Open Source WOIS 3.0 in April

Citizen science Local engagement & dissemination

Cloud technology Bridging the digital devide Collaborative & open platform for large data volume processing & sharing for IWRM Hydrological modeling, flood mapping, small water bodies mapping, water quality & water level Supports algorithm development, sharing of data, tools & knowhow
