• Copernicus, a flagship programme of the European Union:

– Monitors the Earth, its environment and ecosystems

– Prepares for crises, security risks and natural or man-made disasters

– Contributes to the EU’s role as a global soft power

• Adopts a full, free and open data policy

• Is a tool for economic development and a driver for the digital economy

I N - S I T U : O V E R V I E W

• In situ data = observation data from ground-, sea-, or air-borne sensors, reference and ancillary data licensed for use in Copernicus

• Use of In situ data:

– Validate & calibrate Copernicus products

– Reliable information services

• Implementation in two tiers:

– Tailored in situ data for each Copernicus service level

– Cross-cutting coordination across services by the EEA

* The Downstream and end user analysis includes only 8 value chains: Agriculture, Forestry, Urban Monitoring, Insurance, OceanMonitoring, Oil & Gas, Renewable Energies and Air Quality. Estimates for end users were only calculated for Insurance, Oil&Gas and UrbanMonitoring. The estimates of downstream and end user benefits should be seen as extremely conservative because they were calculateda year after the launch of the first Sentinel satellite. Benefits are likely to increase significantly as more Sentinels become operational.

Dual approach:

• Strong Copernicus Distribution Services for download

• Imminent launch of several Data Access and Information Services (DIAS)

– Access to all Copernicus data and information collocated with computing resources

– Big Data analytics without the need to download the data and information

– Data fusion with non-EO data and information

Overall ensuring that Copernicus data is easily accessible and used!
