Project Description

• Coordination of space agencies in ASEAN3 region
  in sharing information of satellite image
  products and its usages for environment study and
  natural hazards
• A distributed system of servers containing
  metadata of available ASIAES information
• Make use of readily available Internet Mapping
  technology
• International standard will be applied to
  facilitate query and consistent presentation
  across multiple participating sites

11
Background

• Originally endorsed in the 3rd ASEAN Economics
  Minister Meeting in 2001
• Four meetings held during the last five years to
  discussed with ASEAN3 countries
• APAN network has been planed be used
• RTG Budget is allocated in the 2006 fiscal year
  for project implementation

12
Expected Outcome

• Better access for the public and worldwide users
  to the ASEAN3 region's satellite imageries and
  other remote sensing information.
• A Clearing House system featuring metadata of
  remote sensing data (useful for environmental
  problems, natural hazard management), tools,
  knowledge and experience.

13
Expected Outcome cont.

• System Capabilities
• Automated Metadata/Information Updating service
• Searching service
• Region of Interest via Web Map Service
• Catalogue/Keywords Search
• Data Viewing
• Data Upload/download service
• Linkages for ordering service
• etc.

14
Expected Outcome cont.

• Data content
• Metadata of the Images which can be used for
  natural hazard management or representing
  environmental events
• documents, applications and tools
• Satellite image archives
• Types of Hazard
• Earthquake active volcano fire flood
  landslide
• deforestation oil spill air, soil and
  water
• pollution, etc.

15
Expected Contribution

• ASIAES participating sites are encouraged to
• Metadata registration and regularly updated
• Provide hypertext linkages within their metadata
  entries that enable users to directly download
  the digital data set
• If the data are too large to be made available
  through the Internet or the data products are
  made available for sale, linkage to an order form
  can be provided in lieu of a data set

16
Data Registration

• Complete metadata for service
• Send metadata .xml to main Data Server
• Manually E-mail/CD
• Semi-Automatic interface to transfer the XML file
  between Center and Member (FTP)
• Automatic Interface
• a Processor S/W periodically to detect the new
  XML file uploaded from the Member System
• Append the new XML file to the Center systems
  Database

17
Accuracy and Consistency

• Pre-defined processing steps for data input
• QA/QC for spatial/attribute accuracy
• Process for consistent projection/datum
• Standardize symbols
• Develop ISO 19115 compliant metadata
• Store data in a managed environment

GEOSS Task

• WGISS/CEOS plenary (May 2006)
• Disaster Management Project to support GEOSS
• ASIAES and APRSAF coordination to support
  TaskDI-06-01
• Encourage in-situ and space agencies to (i)
  systematically record
• data over coastal regions subject to tsunami
  risk, and (ii) archive
• data in a form easily accessible to all
  countries

23
APRSAFs Goal in Natural Disaster Management

• Quoted from JAXA presentation on JAXAs Earth
  Observation Activities for Disaster Management,
  WGISS Plenary, Hungary, May 2006.
• Goals shared by APRSAF members
• To construct life first society by IT Space
  technology,
• To improve speed and accuracy for disaster
  preparedness and early warning, and
• To minimize victims and social economic losses.
• Phased approach
• STEP 1 Establishment of Sentinel Asia (2006 -
  2007)
• STEP 2 Fusing Observation Satellite System and
  Communications Satellite System (2008 - 2009)
• STEP 3 Disaster Risk Management System in Asia
  Pacific Region (2010- )
