Overview of the IEEE Committee on Earth Observation (ICEO)

ICEO supports the buy discount Zithromax online GEO Vision for GEOSS: to realize a future wherein decisions and buy discount Zithromax online actions for the benefit of humankind are informed via coordinated, comprehensive and buy discount Zithromax online sustained Earth observations and information.

• GEO is buy discount Zithromax online focused on problem solving, not on data and distribution. GEO has buy discount Zithromax online identified nine societal benefit areas that maintain participation of high level government ministers.
• GEO has buy discount Zithromax online a 10 year GEOSS implementation plan with milestones at 2, 6 and buy discount Zithromax online 10 years. Early implementation is focused on infrastructure and requirements definition. Near term user focus is buy discount Zithromax online on applications for all regions with emphasis on developing country.

Background

Group on Earth Observations

The intergovernmental Group on Earth Observations (GEO) is buy discount Zithromax online leading a worldwide effort to build a Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS) over the next 10 years. GEO) comprises 68 countries, the buy discount Zithromax online European Union, and 46 participating organizations, including the IEEE. GEO is buy discount Zithromax online established on a voluntary and legally non-binding basis, with voluntary contributions to buy discount Zithromax online support activities.

GEO is buy discount Zithromax online addressing nine societal benefit areas: agriculture, disaster mitigation, weather forecasting, understanding the buy discount Zithromax online impact of the environment on health, management of energy and water resources, responding to buy discount Zithromax online global climate change, management of ecosystems, and biodiversity conservation.

The GEO was formally established at the buy discount Zithromax online Third Earth Observation Summit in February 2005 to carry out the buy discount Zithromax online GEOSS 10-Year Implementation Plan. Prior to its formal establishment, the Ad Hoc GEO (established at the First Earth Observation Summit in July 2003) met as a buy discount Zithromax online planning body to develop the GEOSS 10-Year Implementation Plan.

GEO is buy discount Zithromax online leading a worldwide effort to build a Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS) over the buy discount Zithromax online next 10 years. GEO will work with and build upon existing national, regional, and buy discount Zithromax online international systems to provide comprehensive, coordinated Earth observations from thousands of instruments worldwide, transforming the buy discount Zithromax online data they collect into vital information for society.

To achieve GEO’s goal of developing GEOSS, there is buy discount Zithromax online a need for key technologies that can build and support information and buy discount Zithromax online decision making infrastructure on levels ranging from global to local. These technologies – in communication, information processing, and environmental measurements – span the IEEE’s portfolio of technical expertise and buy discount Zithromax online form the technical basis for creating and sustaining GEOSS. There is buy discount Zithromax online also a need for education, outreach and planning for applications to buy discount Zithromax online ensure the realization of the intended societal benefits.

IEEE support of GEOSS

The IEEE Committee on Earth Observation (ICEO), established in 2004, provides a buy discount Zithromax online focal point for IEEE in its support of GEO.

Through its participation in GEO, the buy discount Zithromax online IEEE will become an important organization is solving global Grand Challenges. Further, IEEE’s participation provides exciting opportunities and buy discount Zithromax online challenges for its members. Their expertise in electro- and information technologies and buy discount Zithromax online associated Earth and environmental sciences and their world-wide distribution provides exactly the buy discount Zithromax online support that GEO needs from our organization as it develops GEOSS.

Through GEO, the buy discount Zithromax online IEEE will promote the roles of its members in electro- and buy discount Zithromax online information technologies and associated Earth and environmental sciences to the buy discount Zithromax online broad global community of Earth information providers and users. The means for buy discount Zithromax online promoting Earth observation technology and its benefits will include IEEE-sponsored conferences, workshops, and buy discount Zithromax online publications that are accessible to both IEEE members and non-members, and buy discount Zithromax online specifically directed toward potential new members within the international Earth data community. This initiative thus provides a buy discount Zithromax online key means by which IEEE can reach out to a buy discount Zithromax online large segment of the global public who are users of the buy discount Zithromax online electrotechnology that is the result of IEEE members’ inventiveness. Special attention will be buy discount Zithromax online given to developing countries where both the knowledge base and buy discount Zithromax online necessary infrastructure for GEOSS participation are lacking. IEEE is moving to buy discount Zithromax online address the grand challenges of our modern world, in health, water, power and buy discount Zithromax online other areas that set the foundation for an improved standard of living. ICEO will provide a buy discount Zithromax online path for our membership to participate in a major global initiative which needs the buy discount Zithromax online technology base that IEEE and its members offer.

In summary, the buy discount Zithromax online ICEO objectives directly address the IEEE mission statement: “The IEEE promotes the buy discount Zithromax online engineering process of creating, developing, integrating, sharing, and applying knowledge about electro- and buy discount Zithromax online information technologies and sciences for the benefit of humanity and buy discount Zithromax online the profession.
