This activity is establishing a process for
identifying critical Earth observation priorities common to many of the
nine GEO societal benefit areas, involving scientific and technical
experts, taking account of socio-economic factors, and building on the
results of existing systems’ requirements development processes. GEO
will use the results of this activity to determine, prioritize, and
communicate gaps in current and future Earth observations to support
discussions on potential investment opportunities.
The nine societal benefit areas (SBA) are: Agriculture, Biodiversity, Climate, Disasters, Ecosystems, Energy, Health, Water, and Weather. (The task team divided the Health SBA into three parts: Health - Aeroallergens, Health-Air Quality and Health-Infectious Disease.)
The GEO User Interface Committee (UIC) manages this task. The UIC developed a nine-step process to identify the critical Earth observation priorities within each SBA. The UIC will use this information to determine the priority observations common across the nine SBAs.
For each SBA, there is Analyst and an Advisory Group to conduct the nine-step process. The Analysts will serve as the point of contact to manage the process. The respective Advisory Groups (experts from developed and developing countries) will assist the Analyst to identify documents, assess analyses, and review findings.
The process for each SBA focuses on performing a meta-analysis of Earth observation priorities already identified in existing, publicly-available documents from the last decade. The task will harvest and analyze information from a representative sampling of documents (e.g., reports, workshop summaries, project summaries, etc.) that GEO Member Countries and Participating Organizations have published or released. The task seeks to ensure an international breadth of documents in this meta-analysis, including significant representation from developing countries.
