  1. MarCoast, a “user” service network vision Roberto Aloisi, Alcatel Alenia Space GlobCOLOUR/Medspiration Workshop, 5-Dec-06

  2. Outline • MarCoast presentation • Water Quality service chain • Short term perspectives

  3. MarCoast key figures • ESA funding • Part of GMES ServiceElements (GSE) • Continuation of ROSESand COASTWATCH projects • 5 M€ for the baseline • Additional budget throughextensions • 3 years duration • Kick-off in November 2005 • 32 partners from 10 differentcountries

  4. MarCoast objectives • MarCoast key objectives • Set up a service network • Deliver a consistent portfolio of marine and coastal services at European scale • Improve validation, qualification, and acceptance of service capabilities • Reach sustainability in the mid-term (ideally before the end of the project) • How ? • Key and reference actors in each European country • Establish formal relationships with users based on commitments (SLA) • Gain institutional and political support at European and National levels • Define the legitimate position and role of MarCoast in the GMES puzzle • Consistency with Fast Track Marine Core Services • Operational connections with other reference initiatives (GlobColour, Medspiration,…) • ESA, National Agencies, EU (fast-track services)

  5. MarCoast services portfolio • MarCoast proposes a set of 6 services • Oil spill surveillance and customised information • Oil spill drift forecast • Water quality monitoring and alert • Algae blooms monitoring and evolution forecasting • Water quality assessment service • Met-Ocean data

  6. MarCoast services portfolio • MarCoast Oil Spill services • Oil spill surveillance and customised information (S1, KSAT) • Oil spill drift forecast (S2, BMT)

  11. Service chain for Water Quality MetOcean Data U S E R S Surface currents Sea Height Ocean state forecast Winds Ocean color data EO Physical products EO Water Quality Monitoring WQ Parameters In Situ Large scale products Alerts EO Algae bloom Risks mapping Propagation Alert assessment Detected blooms Propagation forecast Risk Maps In Situ EO Water Quality Assessment Indicators

  13. Description of the service in terms of Description of the product(s) to be delivered Resolution, format, expected accuracy, … Geographical coverage Delivery delay Delivery access (ftp, email, web, …) Level of performances Duration Commitment from the Service Provider To improve the service delivery, … Commitment from the User Assessment of service performance Feedback reports Promotion Cost of the service Terms of access Ownership, distribution rights, data policy, etc Service Level Agreement • About 40 SLAs have been signed since the beginning of MarCoast

  14. MarCoast assets • Strong involvement and commitment of end-users • The project is really user-oriented • Reference users in key regions of Europe • EEA as reference European level user • A structured service provision framework • Network of distributed service providers • Commitment of service providers through SLAs • Pragmatic organisation with • Up-stream generic information products providers • Service providers to serve European scale users (ACRI/JRC for EEA) • Regional service providers for regional customisation/enhancement of the service + service distribution to National/regional/local users or downstream service providers (Planetek, MUMM, IVM, Brockmann Consult, FIMR, Ifremer, ACRI,…) • Etablished dynamic process for user feedback and service validation and improvement definition

  15. Short term perspective • Lots of complementary initiatives and projects • GlobCOLOUR, Medspiration, Mersea, Marine Core Service, Marcoast,… • Challenge for GMES to demonstrate maturity in the next stage • Usefulness and efficiency of services to deliver appropriate information products actually supporting decisions in sensitive environmental policy areas • Opportunity to build a strong case on coastal water management • For end to end service chain demonstration with homogeneous quality and maturity (no weak link) • Using Marcoast as natural end of the chain element to link with operational users • Assuring good coverage of • European scale needs (EEA,…) • National needs in key countries of Europe • Experiment local adaptation of service with motivated institutional regional actors
