18. OVERVIEW
NextGEOSS
• Next generation European centralised hub for EO data and processing
• European contribution to GEO:
H2020 SC5-20-2016 call: European data hub of the GEOSS information system
• 10M€, 27 partners, 3.5 years
Concept:
• Provides access to data to the European users communities, together with Cloud resources,
seamlessly connected to provide an integrated ecosystem for supporting applications
• Strong emphasis on engaging the communities of European providers & users

21. The features that best allow to add value for the community, taking in consideration
other competitors and NextGEOSS’s resources, are the following:
VALUE PROPOSITION
Analysis conducted using the Value Creation Wheel framework
 Supports the Sustainable Development Goals
Increasing monitoring capacity based on EO
 User feedback mechanism is integrated in the Data Hub
Enables users to efficiently find fit-for-purpose GEOSS data
 Advanced Discovery Tools
For GEO related Data and information for thematic areas
 Community Enhancement
NextGEOSS is developed with the community, which means that it is tailored towards their needs
and contributes with relevant tools (open source & processes)

22. PROCESS
Integration Process
• Support integration of pilot activities within the system
• Focus on large, systematic processing EO-based pilot activities
• No fully automated process exists yet in EO-based services
☞ Bespoke solutions

23. PROCESS
Users Engagement
• OGC is leading a large engagement effort identifying most promising targets
• Users, data, resource providers, end-users,
stakeholders

24. PROCESS
Data Preparation
• WP6/7 assess data required by pilots
• Then WP2/3 access & catalogue
• Building Community Feedback
• Continuously assessing data access

25. PROCESS
Platform Setup
• Prepare cloud platform
• Procurement of best cloud resources
• Setup of tools and services required

26. PROCESS
Pilots Integration
• Support with each pilot the integration
• Prepare for full scalability
• Integrate
• Build
• Package
• Deploy

27. PROCESS

28. PILOTS
 Engage the GEO and European communities towards understanding their needs, working together
with GEO and Open Data policies
 Identify regional champions for innovative pilots and business oriented pilots
 Collect feedback, expectations and requirements from the public and private communities
 Target Essential Variables towards the SDGs
Communities, promoting innovative GEOSS powered
applications from Europe
