  • Platform for wildlife monitoring integrating Copernicus and ARGOS

data

  • Topic: Stimulating wider research use of Copernicus Sentinel Data
  • Type of action: Research and Innovation action
  • Action duration: 36 months
  • Action start: 1 January 2016
  • Grant amount: 2,6 MEur

Key facts (I) Objectives

EO4wildlife.eu

  • Objectives
  • Architecture a system to access Sentinel EO data, ARGOS archive

databases and real time thematic databank portals

  • Develop an operational easy-to-use platform to query, search, mine and

extract information from these different databases

  • Provide additional functionalities via a toolbox: connections to other

external databases (owner database)

  • An open service platform with an interoperable toolbox will

be designed and implemented.

  • The platform will offer high level big data services that can be

accessed by scientists to perform their respective research on species behaviour

  • The platform front end will be intuitive to use and access by

scientists.

Reference Scenarios

10

EO4wildlife.eu

  • Predicting seabird distributions. Seabird

tracking data and oceanographic variables can be combined to develop predictive habitat utilisation and species distribution models

  • Better knowledge of pelagic fish’s migrations

routes and habitat use. The use case will focus more specifically on Blue fin tuna species in the Mediterranean and North Atlantic regions

  • Copernicus Sentinel data for MPAs managers

to provide them with reliable tools for surveillance on human activities in MPAs

  • Identifying marine turtle behaviours. The final
  • bjective of this scenario is to support

scientists involved in marine turtle studies to predict turtles’ distributions

SLIDE 11

Seabird Tracking Database

Reference Scenarios (I) Predicting seabird distributions

EO4wildlife.eu

11

  • General objective of this scenario is to be able to predict

distribution and abundance of species of birds in order to develop effective management frameworks

  • Seabird tracking data and oceanographic variables can be

combined to develop predictive habitat utilisation and species distribution models.  Authorities could use these as dynamic management tools to help them make real-time decisions to protect seabirds species.

  • In terms tracking data, it is expected to

manipulate:

  • ARGOS tracking data
  • other data from different technologies

(geo locators from data logger, GPS/GSM locator)

slide-12
SLIDE 12
  • The first objective of this scenario enables fish scientists to

track pelagic species with light based geo localization devices and to get a state of the art estimation of the fish trajectory.

Reference Scenarios (II). Better knowledge of pelagic fish’s migrations routes and habitat use

EO4wildlife.eu

12

  • A second objective is to enable analysing and understanding blue

fin tuna behaviour or appearance correlated to environmental data of salinity, primary production and sea surface temperature during spawning season in the Mediterranean Sea.

slide-13
SLIDE 13
  • This scenario will focus on setting up tools for Marine Protected

Areas managers, to help them predicting the distribution of protected species such as marine mammals

  • An important dataset of tracking data from ARGOS system and
  • ther technologies could be available for the scenario. It will mainly

be tracks of marine mammals

Reference Scenarios (III) Copernicus Sentinel data for MPAs managers

EO4wildlife.eu

13

  • The scenario takes place in some of the Marine Protected

Areas in the French Economic zone

slide-14
SLIDE 14

Reference Scenarios (IV) Identifying marine turtle behaviours

EO4wildlife.eu

14

  • The final objective of this scenario is to support scientists involved in marine

turtle studies to predict turtles’ distributions using environmental data, to inform dynamic management scenarios.

  • An important point is to set interoperability with SeaTurtle.org platform,

which is gathering most of these scientists spread over the entire world and

  • ffer most of the functionalities proposed by SeaTurtle.org.
  • The main step forward expected with EO4wildlife platform is to handle

multiple tracks approach This will make an important difference with other existing facilities available for scientists.

  • Initial description of the user’s requirements of the EO4wildlife system

(deliverable D1.1 Use Case Scenarios)

  • General overview of all datasets to be handled in the project (Data

Management Plan v1)

  • First analysis of the use of Copernicus ADD datasets: we are going to

use not only data from the project but also additional datasets.

  • EO4wildlife platform v1 corresponds to current version of SparkInData

platform

  • Other Public documents are published in the project website
