- Abstract
- The Group on Earth Observation
(GEO) has the mandate to implement
the Global Earth Observation System of
Systems (GEOSS ). GEOSS is intended to
serve users in nine Societal Benefit Areas
(SBA s) of Earth Observation, particularly in
support of decision and policy making. The
success of GEO depends strongly on the
contributions and support from a wide
range of Science and Technology (S&T)
communities.
The EGIDA main goal has been to
support broader implementation and
sustainability of the GEOSS S&T roadmap
and the mission of the GEOSS facilitating a
coherent and interoperable networking of
national and international initiatives and
European projects.
EGIDA has prepared a sustainable
process promoting coordination of
activities carried out by: the GEO S&T
Committee; S&T national and European
initiatives; and other S&T Communities.
EGIDA has delivered evaluation
processes, tests and assessment indexes,
expertise databases, a \"GEO Label\"
concept, surveys, and other instruments
and service functions that facilitate the
link of relevant European and global
S&T communities to GEOSS and ensure
it is built using state-of-the-art S&T.
Through co-ordination with the relevant
tasks of the Institutional Development
Implementation Board (former tasks of the
GEOSS S&T Committee), these deliverables
will contribute strongly to the GEO S&T
Roadmap implementation.
For European countries, EGIDA
delivered the \"EGIDA Methodology\":
a sustainable mechanism based on
the GEO S&T approach at national and
regional level, to coordinate national
multi-disciplinary \"System of Systems\".
This builds on existing national initiatives
and European projects, and facilitates the
European S&T Community contributions
to and interactions with GEOSS . The EGIDA
Methodology can improve development
and management of S&T infrastructures,
supporting mobilization of the resources
needed to contribute effectively to GEOSS .
EGIDA involved developing countries by
transferring the EGIDA S&T methodology
to them and implementing five specific
use cases: a pan-European thematic usecase
(Air Quality and Health), two regional
use-cases (Air Quality and Environmental
status in the Mediterranean region) and a
small country use-case (Slovenia); during
the project, it was decided to conceive
and add a new use case to revamp the S&T
initiatives for GEO Spain.
EGIDA has embedded within a wide
Network of Stakeholders selected to
represent the various actors (science
teams and institutions, S&T programmes,
GEO components) and the scientific
fields relevant to the nine GEOSS SBA s.
This network, called EGIDA Stakeholder
Network, has evolved in the GEOSS Science
and Technology Stakeholder Network,
an important instrument for GEOSS to
implement a user-driven process. This was
an important success of the project.
The EGIDA achievements are useful
instruments contributing to close the
geographical gaps particularly in developing
countries. The project identified S&T
communities currently not sufficiently
linked to GEO and GEOSS and promoted
their involvement. It provides a significant
set of use-case for the EGIDA methodology
transfer process, focusing on partnership,
infrastructures, products and services. (literal)
