『전지구적 지구관측시스템들의 시스템 (GEOSS)』구축을 통한 지구 환경변화 대비 및 지속가능 발전 동향

Abstract

Current efforts to observe and understand the Earth system must progress from today's separate observation systems and programs to comprehensive, coordinated, and sustained global information as a basis for future sound decisions and actions. Observing and understanding the Earth system more completely and comprehensively will expand worldwide capacity and means to achieve sustainable development and will yield advances in many specific areas of socio-economic benefit. The global Earth observation system of systems (GEOSS) will be a distributed system of systems, building step-by-step on current cooperation efforts among existing observing and processing systems. To achieve the many benefits of coordinated Earth observations and to move from principles to action, governments adopting the framework document set forth the primary components of a 10-year implementation plan for the establishment of the GEOSS. The establishment of the GEOSS will take advantage of outcomes in disaster reduction, integrated water resource management, ocean monitoring and marine resources management, air quality monitoring and forecasting, biodiversity conservation, global tracking of invasive species, comprehensive monitoring of global and regional climate, and sustainable land use and management. The new research program for basic research of Earth observation systems will be developed to maximize our advantage of establishment of the GEOSS.
