Integrated Earth System Requires Integrated
Observations
The dynamic Earth is a complex system of systems.

From Observations to Benefits
![Page 5: Science Serving Society: U.S. IEOS and GEOSS](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042704/56814d24550346895dba5886/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Linking Observations to Benefits
Better observations will allow us to provide better information and forecasts to aid in decisions across a variety of sectors:
More than half the world’s population lives within 60 km of the shoreline, and this could rise to 3/4 by the year 2020
More than 90% of natural disaster-related deaths occur in developing countries
25% of Earth’s biological productivity and an estimated 80-90% of global commercial fish catch is concentrated in coastal zones
Worldwide agricultural benefits of better El Niño forecasts are conservatively estimated at $450-$550M/year

Disaster ResponseDue to advanced warning provided by NOAA during Hurricane Katrina:
A mandatory evacuation was put in place for New Orleans 24 hours before landfall
The President declared a state of emergency prior to landfall, enabling Louisiana to use Federal resources before the hurricane hit

NOAA and Earth Observation
NOAA: Where Science Gains ValueEarth observations…
Are at the core of NOAA’s mission Support virtually every activity we perform
NOAA has… Observing capabilities being advanced through
scientific and technological research A broad scope of domestic and international
partnerships Commitment to transform research into useful,
operational information The NOAA Observing Systems Council, which serves
as the principal advisory body to the Administrator

Vision for the Future
Moving towards the vision: Establish a governance structure (international
and domestic) Identify near-term opportunities and begin
development of implementation plans Develop a common system architecture Integrate existing systems and capabilities Identify and address gaps Improve capabilities through research and
innovation

Research Community’s Role
The academic and research communities have already contributed to the U.S. Strategy by commenting early in the process.Further opportunities to contribute to the success of GEOSS include:
Playing a lead role in getting user needs incorporated into the development of the system
Bringing together scientific expertise to foster the development of new technologies
Promoting an integrated, multidisciplinary approach to research, outreach and education
