CLOSEDBON-1
BI-01-C1_2 DLR This action seeks to analyse how to increase the implementation of adapted RS parameters in Biodiversity and Conservation application. Moreover it aims at improving the interaction between space agencies and biodiversity/conservation community in order to develop new relevant products. Various workshops and symposia are organised and planned covering terrestrial and marine topics.
CLOSEDCMRS-2
CL-01-C1_1 NOAA Reanalysis, the use of Numerical Weather Prediction assimilation systems using consistent models, is a powerful technique to produce data sets used for a variety of climate and other societal benefit areas. Reanalysis systems, however, have often been run without the benefit of the latest versions of fundamental climate data records (FCDRs); the satellite inputs produced by Space Agencies.This action seeks to improve the interaction between reanalysis center activities and Space Agency reprocessing efforts by identifying the availability and quality attributes of FCDRs that are used to drive the reanalysis.

IN-01 Comments
CEOS continues to meet its IN-01-C2 objectives and deliverables in the GEO Work Plan and is making excellent progress.
CEOS is currently operating 100+ satellites and is launching a large number of satellites in the future (10 in 2014, 8 in 2015) that will contribute a significant amount of new data to support global problems.
20
The IN-01 task has been graded as “YELLOW” in the past, due to issues with global expansion of in-situ data beyond Europe.
The CEOS-led IN-01-C2 component is helping this issue by expanding the ECV Inventory to include in-situ data in the future.
