Earth Observation Data Sharing Capability
Abstract
USEUCOM has identified the need to share national earth observation environmental data for applications such as cooperative disaster relief, humanitarian assistance, and resource planning for economic development. Envisioned capabilities are: a monitoring, analysis, and visualization decision support system for ecological and environmental forecasting and management; world-wide collaborative data sharing; cross-border, interdependent, national and regional solutions for ecological decision support; and scalable, adaptable, and sustainable core systems. Potential participants include European Command (EUCOM), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum fur Luft-und Raumfahrt) (DLR), University Alabama Huntsville (UAH), Von Braun Center for Science and Innovation (VCSI) and Partner Nations, Operators / Analysts and Decision-makers. The project intends to leverage existing space, air, ground-based and NASA's decision support architecture assets. This project aims to demonstrate, assess and transition a decision support system for cross border, regional and multi-national environmental, humanitarian and hazard risk forecasting and management. The DoD user sponsor is European Command.
