SAFER
SAFERGMES project SAFER aims at developing the pre-operational version of the GMES Emergency Response Service (ERS). SAFER has started in January 2009 and is scheduled to last till December 2011One of these services is the rapid mapping component called Emergency Mapping.
ORIGINBased on the experience of precursor projects/the cooperation with the Charter, it was predicted that within the next 3 years 30, 45, 60activations will be requested.One of the main challenges was to set up a robust operational model that ensures the service provision. Solution: combine best aspects of precursor projects
Realised within the first 4 months first maps were provided end of April 2009

Basic workflow of emergency mapping
Focal point receives the user requests for a SAFER activationOnce the request is accepted all potentially involved projects partners, the Focal Point (FP), the Rapid Mapping Coordinator (RMC) and the Rapid Mapping Service Providers (RMSP), hold a
teleconResponsible Rapid Mapping Provider is identified and coordinates with the Focal Point, the user and GSCDA. During large activations RMC coordinates the mapping activity
The complete service model was tested in more than 60 activations so far. It proved to be well structured and fit for purpose.

SAFER EMERGENCY MAPPING SERVICE SPECIFICATIONS
24/7 AVAILABILITY OF THE SERVICEThe complete service needs to be 24/7. This is not only valid concerning the accessibility but also for starting mapping at
any time it is requested. A major challenge of SAFER is to work towards a complete 24/7-availablility of all components that are needed within the service provision, including data supply.
TIMELINESSThe general user requirement is: first reference maps within 8 hours after activation first post-crisis products 24 hours after activating ERS.
-> To deliver within these deadlines is the future aim of the service. Some parts of the complete service chain, mainly data acquisition and delivery are not able to fulfil the requirements.. At the moment the products are generally generated within 8 hours after reception

SAFER EMERGENCY MAPPING SERVICE SPECIFICATIONS
QUALITY ASSESSMENTEmergency Service is under continuous inspection by Validation and Quality Control. The complete spectrum ranges from consistency checks (based on a Quality Control checklist), to an analysis of the products (geometric and thematic accuracy).
STANDARDIZATION AND HARMONIZATIONEvolution of an Emergency Mapping data model and an Extraction Guide. The input to the data model is discussed and agreed with the Project User Board (PUB)
All the products will be provided together with ISO and INSPIRE conform metadata. Establishment of a consistent SAFER symbology
ACTIVATION TYPESThe basic activation is requested by a registered User after a disaster. Alternatively, the User can trigger the service in anticipation of a disaster or some dedicated project partners activate in anticipation of a User request or a disaster. these anticipative activations are foreseen to avoid time loss during the first phase of the activation (“mobilisation phase”) The last type of activation is the test activation.

EXAMPLES OF EMERGENCY MAPPING ACTIVATIONS
Typhoons and floods on Philippines, October 2009 Another challenging situation was the typhoon season in autumn 2009 affecting the Philippines.The activation principle was tested to anticipate the landfall and to pro-actively initiate to data acquisitions

EXAMPLES OF EMERGENCY MAPPING ACTIVATIONS
Haiti earthquake, January 2010One of the worst crises within the last years affected Haiti in January 2010 when an earthquake of magnitude 8.0 hit the country. SAFER cooperated with the International Charter Space and Major Disasters to provide support

Conclusions
The experience so far shows that GMES Emergency Response Services was able to establish an workable operational model and to deliver services of high quality for more than 60 activations Feedbacks from Users proof that the service is highly appreciated Good integration between scientific teams, service providers and users (Civil
Protection units and Humanitarian Aid actors) Validation of operational performance / research activities are very important
Substantial R&D for ERS will be needed to further evolve: the timeliness and level of automation the extension of products and thematic services Harmonisation of the analysis methods
Longer term issues: Agreement on organisation and governance (responsibilities between
Member States and European level) Budgets for long term operation of ERS Space component: long term continuity and performance of high
resolution missions
Thank you for your attention
