Remote Sensing for International Stability and Security - Integrating GMOSS Achievements in GMES

The Joint Research Centre of the European Commission hosted a two-day workshop "Remote sensing for international stability and security: integrating GMOSS achievements in GMES". Its aim was to disseminate the scientific and technical achievements of the Global Monitoring for Security and Stability (GMOSS) network of excellence to partners of ongoing and future GMES projects such as RESPOND, LIMES, RISK-EOS,PREVIEW, BOSS4GMES, SAFER, G-MOSAIC. The objectives of this workshop were: ¿ To bring together scientific and technical people from the GMOSS NoE and from thematically related GMES projects. ¿ To discuss and compare alternative technical solutions (e.g. final experimental understanding from GMOSS, operational procedures applied in projects such as RESPOND, pre-operational application procedures foreseen from LIMES, etc.) ¿ To draft a list of technical and scientific challenges relevant in the next future. ¿ To open GMOSS to a wider forum in the JRC This report contains abstracts of the fifteen contributions presented by European researchers. The different presentations addressed pre-processing, feature recognition, change detection and applications which represents also the structure of the report. The second part includes poster abstracts presented during a separate poster session.JRC.G.2-Global security and crisis managemen
