Earth Observation Enhancing Partnerships to Benefit the Globe Brigadier General John J. Kelly, Jr., United States Air Force (Ret.) Deputy Under Secretary of Commerce for Oceans and Atmosphere NOAA Deputy Administrator

Evolving World—Evolving Needs

Benefits of Observations Natural & Human Induced Disasters Human Health & Well-Being Energy Resources Climate Variability & Change Water Resources Weather Information, Forecasting & Warning Terrestrial, Coastal & Marine Ecosystems Sustainable Agriculture & Desertification Biodiversity

GEOSS Development of the Global Earth Observation System of Systems World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD)  Called on countries to foster international cooperation and coordination among global observing systems and research programs G8 Science & Technology Action Plan  Ministers meeting at Evian echoed the charge from WSSD, identifying global observations as one of three priorities and calling on the nations of the G8 to develop close coordination and build on existing work to develop a multi year plan

Earth Observation Summit I July 31, 2003 Washington, D.C. 34 Nations 20 International Organizations

Ad Hoc Intergovernmental Group on Earth Observations (GEO) Goal: Develop 10-Year Implementation Plan 47 Countries + EC & 29 International Organizations currently represented Four Intergovernmental Chairs:  Mr. Akio Yuki, Japan  Mr. Achilleas Mitsos, European Commission  Dr. Rob Adam, South Africa  VADM Conrad Lautenbacher, Jr., USN (Ret.), United States Open Membership

GEO 1-4 Established 5 Subgroups  Architecture  Capacity Building  Data Utilization  International Cooperation  User Requirements & Outreach Societal Benefits Focus Established Implementation Plan Task Team (IPTT) David Williams, EUMETSAT Toshio Koike, Tokyo University Robert Scholes, Council for Scientific and Industrial Research Ivan DeLoatch, United States Geographical Survey Finalized Framework & Communiqué Washington, DC Baveno, Italy Cape Town, South Africa Tokyo, Japan

Earth Observation Summit II 43 Ministers & Heads of Delegation in attendance 25 International Organizations represented Prime Minister Koizumi gave keynote on importance of observations to the global environment and economy Adopted Framework for Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS), along with Ministerial Communiqué

The Road Ahead Critical Work Ahead – Ministerial Approval  10 Year Implementation Plan  Technical Blueprint  Communiqué of EOS-III GEO-5: November ’04, Ottawa, Canada GEO-6: February ’05, Brussels, Belgium Earth Observation Summit III: February ’05, Brussels, Belgium

Role of Space-Based Systems Pivotal Part of Earth Information System Global Reach Increasing Potential Capabilities Complemented by In-situ Systems

Partnerships Partnerships are Essential to Success of GEOSS  Governments, industry, academia, and nongovernmental organizations India and U.S. Already Work Together in Multilateral Fora Solid Foundation from Which to Work  Committee on Earth Observation Satellites (CEOS)  Integrated Global Observing Strategy (IGOS)  International Charter on Space and Major Disasters  Coordination Group for Meteorological Satellites (CGMS)

Partnerships NOAA-India Bilateral Relationship  MOU for Science Cooperation in the Areas of Earth & Atmospheric Sciences Partnership Was Forged to Address Similar Challenges  Large populations in floodplains and coastal regions  Areas vulnerable to severe weather events and natural disasters Significant Benefit to Enhancing Cooperation

GEOSS: Exploring Earth Opportunity to Enhance Our Understanding of the Globe Global System of Systems  India and U.S. are contributors  Multilateral and bilateral relationship is part of the bigger picture Objective: Improved Information for Better Decisions  Address human health, safety and welfare  Protect the environment  Achieve sustainable development
