  1. Les 7èmes journées scientifiques et techniques du CETMEF – Paris – 8, 9 et 10 décembre 2008 Le projet LIMES : Land and Sea Integrated Monitoring For European Security Giovanni Cannizzaro - Telespazio

  2. LIMES • Project Overview • GMES Security • 42 months programme, started 1° December 2006 • 45 partners from 11 European countries and around 20/25 main users • Budget: 21 Million €

  3. LIMES Overview Development of satellite-based services providing relevant information and decision-support tools in relation to the following domains: • Organization and distribution of humanitarian relief & reconstruction • Surveillance of the EU borders (land and sea) • Surveillance and protection of maritime transport for sensitive cargo • Protection against emerging security threats

  4. Maritime Surveillance: • Monitoring of both Vessel and Sensitive Cargo movements over coastal and open ocean areas . • based on satellite SAR and include the integration of VMS, AIS, SATCOM, other vessels and aircraft data • Test areas are Mediterranean, North Sea, Atlantic and areas outside EU. • Main Users are Coasts Guards, Customs, FRONTEX; others EU and Internl Agencies SAR - AIS integration LIMES MARITIME

  6. Maritime Surveillance Service 2008 Demonstrations Caribbean Coastal Water Baltic/North Sea Cargo Non EU Atlantic Eastern Med

  7. Earth Observation • Correlation SAR-AIS 1. SAR Ships 2. SAR + AIS 3. CorrelationSAR - AIS 4. Uncorrelatedships

  8. Earth Observation EO data provide a new “information” layer to the Maritime Picture Satellites detect all vessels (both cooperative and non cooperative)

  9. Examples of COSMO-SkyMed Potentiality Cosmo-SkyMed 1, Spotlight-2 imaging mode; angle 30° 15 May 2008 11:03 UTC, Descending orbit, Right looking

  10. FRONTEX Nautilus Demo (July – August 08) Area of Interest (AOI) for satellite acquisitions

  11. Nautilus 2008 Operation • Data Provision: Cosmo-SkyMed (CSK) Earth Observation data acquisitions to support the Joint Operation NAUTILUS 2008 (illegal immigration) • Service Provision: Near Real Time Tasking, Acquisition, Processing, and Product delivery via WebGIS • Personnel Support: Telespazio personnel at the Operational Center in Malta – NAUTILUS 2008 Team coordinated by FRONTEX

  12. Surveillance Outside Europe Illegal trafficking surveillance in the Caribbean waters • SCENARIO • The Caribbean waters: a transit zone of narco-traffic, from South America to U.S., Europe and local markets. • Mostly by sea: small go-fast vessels, larger fishing vessels, yachts and freight carriers

  13. Caribbean Waters • Services Caribbean Large area monitoring in Near Real Time conditions with RADAR and Optical satellites Surveillance of activities and maritime situation update Caribbean small areas surveillance in off line conditions with RADAR high resolution satellite Detection of small vessels Open ocean routes monitoring in off line conditions with RADAR satellites Detection and tracking of large vessels

  14. Caribbean Waters • Large area monitoring • SAR and complementary optical data. • Data reception by Cayenne ground station • vessel extraction in Cayenne facilities • Picture made available to Fort de France end user centre • Near real time use

  15. Caribbean Waters • Open Ocean routes monitoring • Routine surveillance of routes in the Atlantic Ocean • Systematic wide swath SAR data acquired and made available to EUSC • Full reports made at EUSC

  16. Cargo Surveillance Satellite-based solution for cargoes monitoring and protection of maritime transport along sea lanes and corridors of special interest. The Sensitive Cargo Surveillance responds to the needs of E-Navigation along trans-national routes

  17. Cargo Surveillance • architecture The inferred maritime picture from traffic and meteocean information, is delivered to: (i) Coast Guards, (ii) Shipowners, (iii) On board

  18. Sensitive Cargo Surveillance Ground segment On board segment

  19. Sensitive Cargo Surveillance

  20. USER FEEDBACK • Ability to acquire imagery and provide analysis was appreciated and well received : user ready to develop this service further – need to work on service integration • Development foreseen to provide operational support in the next 2 to 5 years • Satellite imageries and vessel detection reports useful to: • follow maritime routes • to plan reconnaissance missions • At present: • revisit time insufficient for real time monitoring • trade-off resolution/swath lead to difficulties in detecting small vessel simultaneously/synoptically over a large area • improvement needed to reduce false detection and to provide vessel speed

  21. CREDITS • Armed Force of Malta • ASI – Italian Space Agency • D’Appolonia • DLR – German Space Agency • EADS Astrium • ESA – European Space Agency • EUSC – European Satellite Centre • French Navy • FRONTEX • Italian Coast Guard • JRC – Joint Research Centre

  22. LIMES Actors • Coordinator: Telespazio; Scientific Coordinator: EC-JRC • Cluster Service coordinators: • DLR (Humanitarian Relief) • QinetiQ (Maritime Surveillance) • GMV (Land and infrastructure surveillance) • Capability/Product main partners: • Joint Research Centre • Infoterra • Telespazio • Thales Alenia Space • User Groups: Representative of the Main Users

  23. Cargo Surveillance • Products Alarms (transmitted to the ship) “Suspect” vessel detection (EO/in-situ based info) Risk Maps (delivered to the Authorities and sip owners), customized for: Management of Tracks in the corridor (Interpolation – Propagation of traffic and meteocean data)

  24. Examples of COSMO-SkyMed Potentiality Cosmo-SkyMed 1, Spotlight-2 imaging mode; angle 30° 15 May 2008 11:03 UTC, Descending orbit, Right looking

  25. Earth Observation The SAR image

  26. On-Going Validation Activities The SAR image and detected Ships

  27. On-Going Validation Activities The SAR image with AIS tracks and detected SHIPs

  28. On-Going Validation Activities Cargo Ship MMSI Number 201100105 IMO Number 7600873 Length = 82 meters Width = 13 meters AIS tracks of ship with length less than 90 meters

  29. On-Going Validation Activities The Ship Detection depends on the Signal to Noise ratio, sea condition and view angle. For Ship with length less than the resolution products, the Ship sizes could not be measured precisely.

  30. Nautilus 2008 Operation • Period: July 17 – Aug 06, 2008 (21 days) • COSMO SK1 & COSMO SK2: two satellites in dawn/dusk orbit, therefore acquisitions over the AOI occur in the morning (~5-6 a.m. UTC) and/or in the evening (~5-6 p.m UTC) • Images acquired in different observing modes, defined on a day by day basis, 1 to 3 acquisitions per day (34 images) • 2 hours between data acquisition and ship detection report (642 targets reported)
