Earth Observation window of opportunity1. Availability many more satellites: e.g. EC Copernicus,
small sat constellations
2. Accessibility ICT, the Cloud
3. Adaptability standards, adaptable usage (GIS/mobile)
4. Affordability free/low cost data, lower cost value adding
5. Acceptability fit-to-purpose, increased quality level

Food security Why Geodata for Agriculture and Water(G4AW)?• 2050 to feed 9 billion people, increase productivity by 70%
• How to do?
• 1st projects have been granted in July 2014
• Focusing on proven technique
• Speeding up scaling
• Innovative concept (Agriculture 2.0) creating unknown opportunities in developing countries

information chain• Based on proven technology and
services• Transmission channel(s) reaching users• License-to-operate (legal, available
data)

Pilar 2. Partnership (Public-Private)
• Closing the information chain,
• Partners bridging the last mile to users of services

Pilar 3 Business model
16
G4AW business models for G4AW services
1. Service model: client is paying (subsidized) fee for service provision
2. Inclusive model: paid service provision bundled into package, e.g. insurance coupled to credit, advisory to input supplies
3. Freemium model: free service provisionOther paying clients are financing operations
4. Loyalty model: free service provisionavoid switching clients to competitor
• Use of aggregators: telecom, bank, insurance, agri business supplier, farmer cooperatives
• Embedding : extension officers, NGO’s, farmer cooperatives
17
Challenges to overcome• Last mile: delivery to, communications with the user
• Usability: creating (direct) impact for user
• Information chain: from provider (high tech) – user (bottom of pyramid)
• Organization: public-private partnership, cultural, IPR
• Finance: investments
• Sustainability: business model, license to operate
18
G4AW granted projects (14): success factors• Market: Tackle a well-defined and specific problem• Solution: Part of a portfolio of services, focus remains on a
core offer with added value for client• License to operate: embedding in the local context• Channel: They build on already existing delivery
mechanism(s)• Maturity: a reproduction of an already (elsewhere) validated
service• G4AW specific: Well-elaborated use of satellite information
& other data for food security
