DI-01 Disasters: Development of multi-hazard and/or end-to-end approaches, as appropriate to meet the needs for disaster risk reduction, preparedness and response in relevant hazard environments. More timely dissemination of information from globally-coordinated systems for monitoring, predicting, risk assessment, early warning, mitigating, and responding to hazards at local, national, regional, and global levels. Increased communication and coordination between national, regional and global communities in support of disaster risk reduction, including clarification of roles and responsibilities and improved resources management. Improved national response to natural and man-made disasters through delivery of spacebased data, resulting from strengthened International Charter on Space and Major Disasters. Improved use of observations and related information to inform policies, decisions and actions associated with disaster preparedness and mitigation. Support to the successful implementation of the Hyogo

DI-01 Key 2014 Outputs – Overview for GEO • Progress has been made across all sub-tasks for D 1 -01 (reported on here albeit briefly). • Following the CEOS-SIT(29) the disasters work within CEOS supporting GEO targets has been modified (improved) further enabling support for broad GEO goals. • CEOS Disaster activities look toward GEO for further leveraging the work of the space agencies and seeks additional partners in these endeavors.

DI-01 -C 1 – GEOSS Architecture for Disasters SIT-29 Meeting CNES, Toulouse, France 9 th-10 th April 2014 • The Architecture document is facilitating interoperability conversations between data providers and disaster response personnel in a variety of international venues such as GEO, CEOS, NAMIBIA FLOOD DASHBOARD UN-SPIDER, OGC, AGU and IGARSS, ESIP Fed • Architecture analysis provided an opportunity to identify and prototype key gaps in international disaster architecture, especially the link between global and local data • The prototype developed and validated architectural concepts including – Distributed and virtual Cloud-based functional nodes – Methods to access local data to validate EO processing, including crowdsourcing techniques – The Geo. Social API with social media distribution of products for discovery and sharing • The architecture analysis spawned several related activities including the contributions to CEOS Disasters Mgmt. activities, USGEO, the OGC Architecture Implementation Pilots and Emergency and Disaster Management DWG, the ESIP Fed Disasters Cluster, SERVIR landslide and flood model enhancements and capacity building in Namibia 14

Sustainability of development and resilience 2. Natural and technological hazards 3. International legal obligation and safeguard for prevention and reduction of disaster risk 4. Further cooperative efforts for trans‐boundary and global characteristics of risk drivers 5. Availability of open source and open access science-based risk information and knowledge Ref: Proposed Elements for Consideration in the Post 2015 Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction by the UN Special Representative of the Secretary General for Disaster Risk Reduction, UNSIDR 17 Dec 2013 16 16

SIT-29 Meeting CNES, Toulouse, France 9 th-10 th April 2014 CEOS Main Strategic Messages - Satellite EO and Disaster Risk Management - Main strategic messages for WCDRR/HFA 2 has been developed. The messages will be used for lobbying at major meetings. • 5 Key Strategic Messages: 1. Satellite EO data complements other data sources but provides unique information. 2. Satellite data needs to be transformed into a higher-level information that can be more readily applied by end-users. 3. Satellite data contributes on all scales, from global, through regional, to local issues. 4. Space agencies want to cooperate with major stakeholders to identify the most critical users’ needs and to establish a plan for a sustained and coordinated response to those needs. 5. User community representatives have an important role to play in the identification of priorities for space agency attention and must stay engaged throughout implementation and operation of the resulting programmes 17

SIT-29 Meeting CNES, Toulouse, France 9 th-10 th April 2014 WCDRR Summary • WCDRR Task Team (WTT) developed short lists of key people and key meetings, and drafted CEOS main strategic messages and CEOS voluntary commitments. • WCDRR/HFA 2 is a long UN process and regional consultations on HFA 2 already started. • CEOS needs to lobby through governments and international organizations for the regional platforms and Preparatory Committee meetings. • Side-events and exhibition at key meetings need to be planned to promote understanding on satellite capabilities for DRR. 18

DI-01 Intervention needed from GEO Members and POs to Achieve 2015 Strategic Targets • As always CEOS looks to strengthen and leverage disaster efforts across GEO members with the ongoing work of CEOS. • Bringing in the pertinent (disaster) in-situ data would be a extremely useful. • Work on where and how investments in disaster activities can broadened and sustained.
