Many datasets, Many opportunities
• > 100 EO satellites in orbit
• Operated by > 34 countries, many with surface resolutions <1 m
• Many expected to be launched in current decade
• Common processes and procedures are lacking for defining quality
“Community” requirement
The Group on Earth Observations (GEO)
(founded 2002) is a voluntary partnership of
89 governments and 61 international
organizations.
GEO’s GEOSS must deliver comprehensive
“knowledge / information products”
worldwide and in a timely manner to meet
the needs of its nine “societal benefit areas”.
This will be achieved through the synergistic
use and combination of data derived from a
variety of sources (satellite, airborne and insitu) through the coordinated resources and
efforts of the GEO members.
Climate
Weather
Strong Requirement Drivers
Achieving this vision (2015) requires the
establishment of an operational framework
to facilitate interoperability and
harmonization.

Current and Future EO Satellites
•
•
112 different CEOS Earth observation satellite missions
are estimated to be currently operating (November 2011).
Many of these comprise series of missions planned to
provide the continuity which is essential for many
observations and applications.
Current plans supplied by CEOS agencies estimate that
in the order of 100 new satellite missions will be launched
for operation between 2011 and 2016. The next few
years will mark a significant era for satellite Earth
observations, with half of these new missions to be
launched by the end of 2013.

We need to understand the error
·
All systems and models have some degree of error
·
Calibration compensates for errors and improved measurement accuracy
is possible
·
Bias between sensors need to be defined and there is a strong need
for better error characterization
·
Data record error is essential for use in climate and change
assessment
·
Different groups can produce defensible, but statistically inconsistent
estimates of trends
·
Need a consistent playing field

Dome-C Cross Calibration Campaign
• With so much impact and
benefit to the cross
calibration of sensors
• 2Nd large CEOS field campaign
is happening in now in
December and January
• Please contact CEOS WGCV
IVOS subgroup ASAP
• [email protected]
• [email protected]
Dome C
Major opportunity to support and collect data for a
detailed CEOS cross-comparison activity at Antarctica
DOME C including a manned activity measuring
