Context

¡ NASA Science Applications and Societal Benefits (Disasters, Floods…)

¡ OpenGeoSpatial Architecture Implementation Pilot -5 (GEOSS Pilot) ¡  Kick-off May 3-4 Geneva ¡  Plenary – Nov 2012

¡  Priority Areas: ¡  GEOSS Common Infrastructure ¡  Societal Benefits Areas: Disasters, Health, Energy,

Water, Agriculture

GEO (Group on Earth Observations) is a voluntary partnership of 151 governments and international organizations, launched in response to calls for action by the 2002 World Summit on Sustainable Development and by the G8 (Group of Eight) leading industrialized countries. GEO is coordinating efforts to build a Global Earth Observation System of Systems, or GEOSS. See http://earthobservations.org/about_geo.shtml.
