GEOSS data, information and tools provide the basis for policy definitio...












Two important videos to view to understand the huge scope of this GLOBAL EARTH OBSERVATION SYSTEM OF SYSTEMS.   There is information on China's contributions in the first video here.  There are enormous resources on the internet to illustrate the size and scope of GEOSS.
Watch both and stay tuned!

P.S.  I'm also linking this video that I referenced in my comments that is a presentation Javier Solana gave in 2017 to a Leadership in Transplantation conference.

GEOSS - Short explanatory video

Group on Earth Observations (GEOSS) - Part 1 of 2: To coordinate the collecting and analysis of data on our environment, the intergovernmental Group on Earth Observations (GEOSS) is leading a worldwide effort to build a Global Earth Observation System of Systems over the next 10 years to help study and manage the worlds resources and disaster prediction and recovery. This program is about the political challenges of developing this global information service that includes satellite-based remote sensing technologies for data collection and analysis. Part 1 of 2.

G E O S S -- GLOBAL EARTH OBSERVATION SYSTEM OF SYSTEMS

GEOSS - GLOBAL EARTH OBSERVATION S
YSTEM OF SYSTEMS


Forget the "black helicopters".  Forget the "chemtrails".  These are mere diversions or a successful variant of the time-honored of the time honored New Age game of "watch the fundamentalists run."  The real danger is now everywhere - GEOSS -  a total global "system of systems" in place, poised to monitor virtually everything.

GLOBAL EARTH OBSERVATION SYSTEM OF SYSTEMS was constructed between 2005 and 2015.  It's proponents describe it in almost messianic terms.  One of its leaders, a Ms. Ryan rapturously describes it as "a Movement" as well as an all-encompassing system.

GEOSS is literally and figuratively  "Big Brother on steroids."  It encompasses satellite surveillance systems from Europe through China -- USA included.  


This is not my first time writing about this all- encompassing satellite/sensor observing "system of systems".  I posted the following on March 18, 2006 to this blogspot:

, , , And that is not to mention the 2008 year the Europeans hope to tie together various creepily acronymed entities such as GMES (Global Monitoring for Environment and Security), GEOSS (Global Environment and Observation System of Systems). But you can relax. Everybody will be perfectly safe. After all, their planned system will monitor every ship at sea. According to their generously free CD, it can even monitor people out on a walk! Sleep well. Our EU big brothers (and they brag that George Bush helped with the GEOSS project) will monitor our every move. And no doubt, they will come off looking like heroes with their fusion energy project called ITER. That rhymes with bitter. , . . 
ITER may not be as successful today as its proponents hoped, but GEOSSS is going strong just about everywhere.  Most of us are blissfully unaware!  Where is GEOSS today?   What do its proponents say on their websites? 

From one of its user handbooks:

Introduction SomeI History The GEO Strategic Plan states that “GEO is a coalition of governments and participating Organizations having as its mission the implementation of the Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS) to meet the need for timely, quality long-term global information as a basis for sound decision-making”. Earth observations from diverse sources, including satellite, airborne, in-situ platforms, and citizen observatories, when integrated together, provide powerful tools for understanding the past and present conditions of Earth systems, as well as the interplay between them”. The GEOSS Platform formerly called the GEOSS Common Infrastructure (GCI) has been created to provide the technological tool to implement the Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS). The birth of the former GCI has been in 2008, as Clearinghouse catalogue, in 2012 the GCI evolved into a Brokering infrastructure with the inclusion of the GEO Discovery and Access Broker (GEO DAB). The first user interface, the GEOSS Portal was initially created in 2010 and in 2016 has seen great enhancements in terms of user experience and enhanced discovery, access and visualization functionalities. In 2017 the formerly called GCI has evolved into a GEOSS Platform. 

A sobering thought is GEOSS combined with drone technology.  That makes some of the prophecies about global persecution of believers easier to comprehend.

I've spent enormous time researching this recently and the web available material is so extensive, encapsulation is sometimes difficult.  There is a lot here to wrap one's brain around.

Research this yourself and Stay tuned!
