GMES is established to fulfil the growing needamongst European policy-makers to access

accurate and timely information services to better manage the environment,understand and mitigate the effects of climate

change and ensure security.

Global Monitoring for Environment and Security

GMES Components

GMES is an EU led initiative

Services Component led by EC

Produces information services in response to European

policy priorities in environment and security

Relies on data from in-situ and space component

In-situ component led by EEA Observations mostly within national responsibility, withcoordination at European level

Space Component led by ESA Sentinels - EO missions developed specifically for GMES: Contributing Missions - EO missions built for purposes

other than GMES but offering part of their capacity to GMES

(EU/ESA MSs, EUMETSAT, commercial, international)


5/16


Monitoring Earth sub-systems: Land: land use and land cover changes Ocean: sustainable ocean resources and impact of

environmental hazards

Atmosphere: effect of greenhouse gases and

aerosols on climate change, air quality, and ultraviolet

radiation

Other Services:

Emergency: rapid mapping services in case of

humanitarian crises and natural or man-made disasters

Security: maritime surveillance, conflict prevention

and mitigation outside Europe

Climate change is cutting across the above domains

Connecting the dots: GNSS and GMES

GMES is a prime example of a critical European Programme with clear potential links to Galileoand EGNOS.

The European GNSS programmes will be important partners in GMES, due to theircomplementarity.

Role of GNSS in emergency services such as SAR, disaster relief and environmental monitoring

Tracking floods, fires, oil spills and earth quakes

Support of relevant EU/ ESA projects within GMES:

MARISS (controlling and monitoring maritime traffic, coastal monitoring)

SAFER ( Validates the pre-operational versions of the GMES Emergency Response Service: rapidmapping, assessment maps, etc)

RESPOND (humanitarian, disaster and security topics)

Potential role in support of CFSP/ ESDP operations

G-MOSAIC (geo-spatial information in support of EU external actions)

Maritime Security applications

Illegal trafficking:- X-band SAR shows vessel structure and enables improved identification- High resolution X-band enables detection of small vessels close to larger vessel for monitoring of

illegal transfer activities
