[Esip-disasters] ESIP Disasters Cluster Meeting July 10, 2014 at 4:00 pm Mountain Time

[Pat Cappelaere via Esip-disasters]

Karen,

Here is my wish list of products for disasters to have in common format that can be visualized on mobile platform:

- High Resolution DEM (<15m)
- Flood maps at high resolution at < 10m (or higher as available)
- Minimum/Maximum Inundation Levels at < 10m
- Minimum/Maximum Surface Reference Water at < 10m
- Daily Precipitation Accumulation and Forecast at 1km resolution or less
- Soil Moisture and Forecast at 1km or less
- Temperature/Wind Nowcast/Forecast at 1km or less
- Cloud Coverage Forecast at 1km or less
- Active Fires and Fire Forecast
- Fire Burn Scar Areas at 1km or less
- NDVI and similar indices at 1km or less
- Landslide/Flood Nowcast/Forecast at 1km or less
- Drought Nowcast/Forecast at 1km or less
- Earthquake Nowcast/Forecast
- Distributed Hazard Inventories (Landslides/Floods/Quakes/Volcanoes…)
- Hurricane/Tsunami Forecasts
- Night Lights at 1km or less
- Population density  at 1km or less
- Infrastructure layers (roads, rails, hospitals, schools…)
…


This may require:
- High res imagery (Visible, Multispectral and Hyperspectral) < 15m
- Radar Imagery < 15m

These products need to have a “common” semantic name.  They need to be able to be discovered in an ad-hoc or formal manner.
They need to be searchable for a local area.  They need to be sharable and annotatable by the Community. 
They cannot require any proprietary software for any user interactions.

Pat.

> Abstract: 
> Long term sustainability is crucial to capabilities supporting and enabling disaster lifecycle activities. The overarching objective of the ESIP Disaster Cluster is to facilitate connections and coordinate efforts among data providers, managers and developers of disaster response systems and tools, and end-user communities within ESIP. This session will include report of the working group's activities,  presentations that highlight use cases and Disasters & Risk Management (DRM) information architecture, as well as planning for future activities.

> Since the January ESIP meeting, the Disasters Cluster has discussed elements of a disasters 'information architecture', especially at the joint ESIP/CEOS WGISS session in April. These topics support the goal of identifying and infusing new Earth observation capabilities (products and services) into end user disaster management systems. This session will look at existing efforts addressing disasters information that we might leverage in discussing and determining the cluster's action plan.

This is a bit earlier than originally planned because ESIP 101 was moved from 8-9 am to lunchtime, 12-1:30. Registration will open at 7:30 and breakfast will start at the same time. Printed packets will be available, t-shirts and other goodies!

They are also available on the ESIP Commons by clicking on the room name in the schedule: http://commons.esipfed.org/schedule/Summer%20Meeting%202014 WebEx is scheduled for morning and afternoon sessions, not by session titles. This gives us a bit of flexibility on room changes.

Here’s the link: https://www.regonline.com/Register/Checkin.aspx?EventID=1548747  There is no charge to register for remote participation, but it is important for you to register - we’ll be able to communicate directly with the remote participants more easily and have a more accurate idea of how our hybrid meeting structure is doing.
