1 Development of Global Map for GEOSS SBAs US-09-03a UIC User Engagement Session 2 November, 2010 Yoshikazu FUKUSHIMA Secretariat General of International Steering Committee for Global Mapping Geospatial Information Authority of Japan

2 Mission of US-09-03a 1. Align the Global Map Specifications with requirement from SBAs (Disaster, Health, Agriculture, Biodiversity and Water) 2. Foster the use of Global Map in SBAs Global Map Full and consistent coverage of land on the Earth 1 km resolution Developed by National Mapping Organizations(NMO)

3 8 layers of Global Map (Kenya)

4 Progress of Global Mapping Project (as of Legend data available data for verification developing data considering joining the project not participating in the project *This map is for the purpose of reference and the boundaries in this map are not authorized by any organizations. Countries and Regions Area ratio (%) Population ratio (%) Available Verification Developing Total

5 Global Map Global Datasets Land Cover Percent Tree Cover

6 Annual Change Rate of Forest Area ( ) decrease by more than 0.5 % increase by more than 0.5 % change by less than 0.5 % from FAO statistics Percent Tree Cover (from Global Map) Annual Report on the Environment, the Sound Material- Cycle Society and the Biodiversity in Japan 2010

7 Application - LULUCF (Land use, Land-use Change and Forestry) Global Map Land Cover data can be used for GHGs inventory In calculating the emissions and removals of GHGs and its supplementation and cross-checking *Global Map is introduced in IPCC GPG for LULUCF and 2006 IPCC Guidelines for national GHG Inventories Policy formulation and planning By understanding spatial distribution of land use

8 Application - Flood Analysis Global Map is used in a flood analysis system IFAS (Integrated Flood Analysis System, developed by Public Works Research Institute of Japan). GIS data (Land Information) Global Map (Land Use, Land Cover) Other Data (Soil, Geology) GIS data (DEM) Global Map (Elevation) Parameter Roughness Surface permeability Soil permeability Soil thickness Rock permeability Basin Shape Satellite-based rainfall data Flood Analysis

9 Collaboration with Asian Highway Project

10 Natural Disasters Maps for areas damaged by natural disasters prepared using Global Map are submitted to the UNOCHA Relief Web Chile Earthquake on Feb. 27 th, 2010

11 Global Map School 1 st (Japan - Philippines) Students can exchange their views, such as geographies, environmental issues, industry, using Global Map. September 30, rd (Japan - Thailand) June 7, nd (Japan - Thailand) March 20,

12 History of Specifications Version 1 Spec. Adopted in 1998 at the beginning of production Issues raised on Vector layers Users needs were not collected in 1998 Difficulties on development by National Mapping Organizations (NMOs) Outdated format (VPF) Version 2 Spec. (New) Global Map will be revised by 2012 Spec. was adopted by ISCGM in October 2009

13 Process of Drafting of Specifications Preliminary Study 1 (May 2007) General Questionnaire to Users and NMOs Tiling, Gap of data density, Formats Preliminary Study 2 (Apr. 2008) New features, attributes and their codes Questionnaires to NMOs 3 times of Circulation of Draft Spec. (Jan.-Feb. 2009), (Mar.-Apr. 2009) and (Jun.-Jul. 2009) Workshop for Revision of Global Map Specifications in Japan (Sep. 2009)

14 Workshop for Revision of Global Map Specifications Open-Forum (8, Sep. 2009) Experts on Environment and Disasters and NMOs Discussion on Draft Spec. (9-10, Sep. 2009) Data Dictionary and Formats Open Forum Drafting Specifications

15 Summary of New Specifications Vector Features etc. To include port and train station as a new feature To eliminate all text features To include attributes of population value and year of population census in political boundary features To change data tiling Format GML Raster Same as Version 1 Available at ISCGM web page

16 Capacity building component Capacity building components for National Mapping Organizations Manual for development Specifications document for French & Spanish languages Training with ODA (JICA) Grant program of ESRI & Intergraph for Users?

17 User engagement User engagement Contacts at some applications Disasters (flood simulation, UNOCHA) SALB/World Health Organization (administrative boundaries) Carbon emission (WGIA, NIES of Japan) Infrastructure development (ESCAP) Space Organization (JAXA) more

18 Further Revision of Specifications (ISCGM in 17th Oct. 2010) Vector 1:250,000 Scale (New) (Option for some countries) Specifications for 1:250,000 New features? New attributes? Process? Questionnaires to users and Circulation of Draft Spec. to NMOs How to collect opinions from GEOSS community? Raster land cover resolution is up to 100m (option) Web Mapping Initial discussion at ISCGM Collect information Technology Transfer to NMOs of developing countries
