4. Purpose – GA.4.Disasters WGISS Project Work jointly with the CEOS Disasters SBA team to develop the GEOSS enterprise architecture for managing distributed systems and web services for disaster management. I: Answer questions regarding role of information systems and services in support of disaster management & risk assessment – Clarify scope of the disaster management enterprise – Promote a common understanding of its components and roles – Identify relationship of ongoing activities to the enterprise as a whole (shortfalls, gaps, redundancies) II: Use enterprise architecture to guide implementation of proof-of-concept prototypes – Refine the enterprise architecture – Capture lessons learned and recommend standards 9/27/114WGISS-32 Budapest, Hungary Scope

5. GA.4.Disasters Status Project start: June 2011, Serhiy Skakun & Karen Moe co-leads Team established July 2011 – 22 on mailing list from 9 CEOS agencies, including members from Disasters SBA and International Charter, IC) – WGISS GA.4.Disasters web site – 2 telecons, several interviews (IC processes, Disasters SBA results to date, CEOS Supersites) Namibian Flood Pilot extension for 2012 flood season – Acquire near-real time data for risk assessment prior to flooding conditions – Explore product delivery for use directly in the field and the role of SERVIR-Africa node in Kenya – Calibrate models and compare to flood products from IC 9/27/115WGISS-32 Budapest, Hungary
