Description du projet
Une surveillance multirisque innovante
Le développement de la technologie de navigation par satellite va permettre la surveillance et la prévision des catastrophes naturelles. La surveillance globale multialéas implique des observations globales de la Terre ininterrompues en temps quasi réel à partir d’un satellite, qui permettent de signaler rapidement les catastrophes naturelles affectant la gestion du trafic aérien et de fournir des informations permettant de mieux appréhender la situation et d’accroître la flexibilité de la réponse en cas de crise. Le projet ALARM, financé par l’UE, développera un prototype de système mondial de surveillance multialéas et d’alerte précoce. Le projet utilisera des données en temps quasi réel et des produits adaptés provenant de systèmes terrestres et satellitaires pour renforcer les modèles d’identification et de prévision du risque et du déplacement de particules en suspension et de gaz issus de catastrophes naturelles, ainsi que de situations météorologiques extrêmes, de l’augmentation des radiations et des contributions environnementales au réchauffement climatique.
Objectif
The overall objective of ALARM (“multi-hAzard monitoring and earLy wARning systeM” (ALARM) is to develop a prototype global multi-hazard monitoring and Early Warning System (EWS). A global multi-hazard monitoring means near-real time (NRT) and continuous global Earth observations from satellite, with the objective to generate prompt alerts of natural hazards affecting ATM and to provide information for enhancing situational awareness and providing resilience in crisis. NRT data (with delay of delivery from 10 min, to less than 4h) and tailored products from ground-based and satellite systems, will be used to feed models capable of detecting (creation of alert products) and predicting (nowcasting/forecasting) the risk/displacement of:
• particles in suspension and gas derived from natural hazards (volcanic ash and SO2, dust clouds from sandstorms, and smoke from forest fire);
• severe weather situations such as deep convection and extreme weather;
• space weather regarding exposure to increased levels of radiation during flight;
• environmental hotspots potentially contributing to global warming in a large extent.
ALARM EWS plans to provide alert information for the stakeholders about the threat to aviation in three different manners: 1) early warning (geolocation, altitude and level of severity -quantification if available- of the observed hazard); 2) for some cases nowcasting [up to 2h] and 3) forecasting [from 2h to 48h] of hazard evolution at different flight levels. The consortium will analyse the requirements for its inclusion in the yellow SWIM profile.
Specifically, the aim is to enhance situational awareness of all stakeholders in case of multiple hazard crisis by facilitating the transfer of required relevant information to end-users, presenting such information in a user-friendly manner to ATM stakeholders. In summary, anticipating severe hazards and fostering better decision-making.
