Goal of ERMA Implementation

• Assist with response preparedness • Assist in coordinating response efforts• Define the extent of potential

environmental impacts• Assist in Response, Recovery, and

Restoration• Provide assistance in hours, not days!

Background/History

• Identified need for Web based GIS system that can assist in environmental response efforts and operations (2006 – 2007)

• ERMA developed by NOAA as a Pilot project in Portsmouth NH with regional stakeholders in 2008 (USGC, EPA, States, NGOs)

• After successful testing and RRT drills in NH, Caribbean ERMA was developed as a joint response effort with EPA for the Caribbean RRT in early FY 2010

• Spill of National Significance (SONS) drill in March NOAA expanded the pilot project with assistance from regional stakeholders (ME-DEP, NH-DES, MA-DEP, EPA, and USCG)

• ADM Allen designated ERMA as the Common Operational Picture (COP) for the Deepwater Horizon Incident June 2010

• Pacific Islands in development

• Arctic from NOAA OCRM Energy Initiative

• Lake Champlain in development FY 11 (discussing expansion NJ/ NY harbor with EPA R2)

• Great Lakes- Funding FY 11

Key to development timeline was ERMA Adaptability in scaling: • Open Source freeware software that was customizable• Had to completely clone backend software architecture to cloned

databases after Geoplatform.gov release and redeployed overnight because 3.4 million hits on first day of launch

• Ability to code for non OGC and customized vendor feeds

Internal & External ERMA

• Response/NRDA ERMA– gomex2.erma.unh.edu– Internal, restricted access

• Public ERMA– www.geoplatform.gov– External, un-restricted access

• Controlled access– Development/ Strategic planning– Data Sharing and Public access

ERMA Capabilities

• Readily accessible from any web browser by customized account access (IE 7+, Firefox, Safari, Chrome)

• Simultaneous Updating of Data to single database– Uploads are location independent– Multiple users may add content at the same time

• Ingest external OGC compliant data feeds (e.g. WMS, GeoRSS, now KML)

• Developers Can Tailor Data Ingest– Non-OGC compliant data can be accommodated

(SPOT, Geoforce, Lipsey, Outerlink)– Ingest authentication done server side

(NAIS, AFF, USCG WMS)

ERMA DWH Lessons Learned

• Non-technical Interface– GIS background not necessary to navigate– “How to” sessions in command posts to socialize ease of use– Success Story – quote from NIC staff “You should see ADM Allen fly around

ERMA on the touch table”

• Scalable Access– Quick to stand up foundation– Public Facing data needed- Geoplatform.gov/Gulfresponse– Varying data access levels based on account type

(responder , NRDA, Trustee)

• Cost Effective due to Open Source Software• Customizable Programming & Modular development• Public Facing or specialized sites

(Climate Change, Marine Debris, Tsunami, Fire)

Page 21: OR&R’s ERMA (Environmental Response Management Application) & NOAA’s Deepwater Horizon Spill Response George Graettinger NOAA’s Ocean Service Office of

ERMA DWH Lessons Learned

• Customization & Flexibility is key– Vessel tracking and asset customization– Plug & Play with other systems

• All systems need to be OGC compliant– ESRI 9.3 WMS don’t provide legend graphics or static rest WMS

• Support various data formats (WMS, GeoRSS, KML, etc)• Expansion of Tool Capabilities (IPAC & other agency tool integration,

AOI points, Labels, etc.)• Additional Functionality

– Auto-refresh– Ship Search – Customized reports

• Download data for other GIS project ingestion

Page 22: OR&R’s ERMA (Environmental Response Management Application) & NOAA’s Deepwater Horizon Spill Response George Graettinger NOAA’s Ocean Service Office of

ERMA DWH Lessons Learned

• Collaboration is required– Need to leverage existing resources & data for application buy in– Multiple Government Agencies

• USEPA• USCG• USFWS• NGA

– Private Sector• BP & contractors• Google

– Imagery service & Investigating 3-D display potential

• Telascience- Fast mosaic for tile cache imagery

• ESRI - hosted WMS for public consumption

• NPS• LA FWS & DEQ• MS FWS & Disaster Plan• FL Disaster Plan

Page 23: OR&R’s ERMA (Environmental Response Management Application) & NOAA’s Deepwater Horizon Spill Response George Graettinger NOAA’s Ocean Service Office of

NOAA Next Steps for ERMA

• Continue customization of ERMA for DWH and future sites• Leverage ties with Google for potential 3-D rendering and

enhancements for KML ingestion• Animation requests for data layers (Beta Release)• Complete outreach and training materials• Apply lessons learned from DWH to Caribbean Site– Stand alone version (not reliant on web)

• Work with EPA and RRT2 for site development in NY/NJ• Development in Pacific Islands, Great Lakes, Arctic with

stakeholders (USCG, EPA, States & NGOs)

ERMA Demonstrationgomex2.erma.unh.edu

• Key Features-– General layout, control, and contents– Find– Zoom (Including MMSI search)– Shapefile download– Bookmarks/Slideshow– Feature Animation– ESI Query Tools– Metadata links (FGDC and “lite metadata”)
