- 5. UNCLASSIFIED / FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY European Union Satellite Centre © 2016 UNCLASSIFIED/FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY 5 First and foremost: NEED understanding • Accessing relevant DATA/INFORMATION, in a timely manner, at the best possible cost • « PARTNERSHIP » with EO services providers • Focusing on and analysing only pertinent areas (irregular activities and change detection) « from pixel to information » • Reaching « END-USERS » in due time
- 6. UNCLASSIFIED / FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY European Union Satellite Centre © 2016 UNCLASSIFIED/FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY 6 A key idea Huge amount of data derived (automatically) from Earth Observation fused with others for providing information directly integrated into business workflows
- 7. UNCLASSIFIED / FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY European Union Satellite Centre © 2016 UNCLASSIFIED/FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY 7 RTDI activities at SatCen • Research, Technology Development and Innovation - Fostering cooperation with EC, EU entities and key organisations in Space such as ESA and GEO - Implementing new solutions with regard to the whole data lifecycle on issues related to Big Data and Cloud Computing EVER-EST NextGEOSS
- 8. UNCLASSIFIED / FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY European Union Satellite Centre © 2016 UNCLASSIFIED/FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY 8 The Big Data Issue • To handle a huge Volume of data produced with high Velocity by a Variety of sources ensuring Veracity and producing Value - Difficult to manage and exploit very large and complex datasets with current tools and methodologies - Datasets for security applications are composed by data coming from space, social, open and other sources • It is key to improve the capacity to manage and exploit a huge amount of heterogeneous data to timely provide decision-makers and people on the field with operational (i.e. clear and useful) information
- 9. UNCLASSIFIED / FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY European Union Satellite Centre © 2016 UNCLASSIFIED/FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY 9 • Volume → Tb of data received each day from satellites • Variety → Data coming from different EO sensors and other sources • Velocity → Data to be sent timely to users requiring fast responses • Veracity → Decision making and operations require reliable sources • Value → Information to be provided has to be useful and clear The Big Challenge in Space and Security Satellite Data Aerial, In-Situ and Collateral Data Support to EU External Policies Border SecurityResilience against Disasters Protection of Critical Infrastructures
- 10. UNCLASSIFIED / FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY European Union Satellite Centre © 2016 UNCLASSIFIED/FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY 10 The Secure Societies H2020 Societal Challenge • Protecting freedom and security of Europe and its citizens - Undertaking the R&I activities needed to protect our citizens, society and economy as well as our infrastructures and services, our prosperity, political stability and wellbeing • Primary aims of the Secure Societies Challenge are: - To enhance the resilience of our society against disasters - To develop solutions for the protection of critical infrastructure - To fight crime and terrorism - To improve border security - To support the Union's external security policies - To provide enhanced cyber-security
- 11. UNCLASSIFIED / FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY European Union Satellite Centre © 2016 UNCLASSIFIED/FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY 11 Always a RISK ASSESSMENT • Large and open dissemination / security at stake • Industry competitiveness at risk ?
- 12. UNCLASSIFIED / FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY European Union Satellite Centre © 2016 UNCLASSIFIED/FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY 12 Why Big Data in Europe • European Council (Conclusions 169/13) - Strategic technologies such as Big Data and Cloud computing are important enablers for productivity and better services. • European Commission (Communication 2014/442) - A thriving data-driven economy will contribute to the well-being of citizens as well as to socio-economic progress… • EU Parliament (Report 2015/2276) - … need for innovative Big Data technologies to make use of the full potential of space data for security and defence… - important role that Horizon 2020 can play in helping the EU reduce its dependence in terms of critical space technologies; … to provide sufficiently for critical space technologies for security and defence… • Global Strategy for the EU’s Foreign and Security Policy (June 2016) - … put ICT (including Big Data analysis) at the service of deeper situational awareness.
- 13. UNCLASSIFIED / FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY European Union Satellite Centre © 2016 UNCLASSIFIED/FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY 13 Why Big Data at SatCen • From Council Decision 2014/401/CFSP on SatCen - The Director shall ensure efficiency and effectiveness in carrying out SatCen activities taking all necessary measures, including the conduct of R&D projects in support of its mission. - The Director shall be responsible for establishing working relations and cooperation with third States, organisations or entities. • From SatCen Work Programme 2017 - SatCen should principally address together with its partners the “Preparation for Big Data exploitation” topic. - SatCen will address the issues related to Big Data in the framework of its RTDI activities. - SatCen will seek to participate in H2020 calls whenever this will open possibilities of enhancing the SatCen capabilities.
- 14. UNCLASSIFIED / FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY European Union Satellite Centre © 2016 UNCLASSIFIED/FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY 14 What Big Data at SatCen • Development of Big Data and Cloud Computing based solutions for exploitation of Big Geospatial Data - To guarantee a better access to open data (e.g. Sentinels) - To search, download and pre-process satellite images - To increase the efficiency of data storage and processing - To integrate heterogeneous data sources Mainly EO and collateral data (e.g. from social media and news) - To perform semi-automatic change detection and data analytics - To properly visualize results
- 15. UNCLASSIFIED / FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY European Union Satellite Centre © 2016 UNCLASSIFIED/FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY 15 Example of the Big Data exploitation chain
- 16. UNCLASSIFIED / FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY European Union Satellite Centre © 2016 UNCLASSIFIED/FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY 16 Big data challenges in secure societies • Mastering steps from sensors to end-users • Changing the pace and way of doing business (e.g. ICT services, processing, dissemination, storage) • Accelerating business value (e.g. network of platforms, analytics) • SatCen contribution: 24-year of direct interface with end- users (applications/services) • Cooperation amongst key actors in the Space and Security domain such as EC, EU entities, SatCen, ESA, GEO has to be furthered
