In a few words…

GreenSSLMTM is a permanent monitoring system handling complex computing interfaces dedicated to ●store ●manage ●process and ●assess

environmental parameters which characterize the holistic status of an area

… for any area, for any place, for any size

3


Motivations and Targets

● Urban spreading

Land use change, human hazardous effects upon environment, inhibited areas near regions undergoing crisis

● Global economy dependence on agriculture, livestock and fishery

Vegetation growth, health and diversity, environmental and other factors causing stresses on ecosystem’s equilibrium, optimized solutions for increased production

● Environmental changes and wildlife extinction

Optimization of environmental theory, monitoring and modeling, definition of the interaction patterns of all factors across a landscape, design of crisis control and management plans

GreenSSLMTM’s Services 5


Data management and potentials

An environment-oriented product, aiming in establishing an

efficient relation coexistence relation of human and

environment

Ability to monitor any area regardless of

how remote, inhibited or not it may be

Ability to acquire real time data on short frequency periods, and archive them for the deduction of areas history and statistics

Ability to select, manage and process a vast amount and variety of complex

data across all the environmental levels of a landscape (as opposed to limited

covering of a specific area/ phenomenon)

Ability to detect environmental

phenomena non detectable by the human eye and/or

traditional monitoring

Ability to provide land use optimization plans, as

well as enforcement of agriculture and other

economy factors

Professional processing powered by environmental mathematical models and

imagery algorithms, designed by our team of environment

biologists

Brief environmental report of the area on

a 3-month basis

GreenSSLM’s Service Levels Overview

• GreenSSLMTM’ s services range

through a scalable measure of complexity depending on the end-user’s requirements

• Services may vary from simply monitoring to advanced environmental theories applications

• Following is a brief description of the different levels presented

Multi-Source Information Management Environment

GreenSSLMTM ensures to collect the grand quantity of ambiguous information needed for a holistic environmental evaluation and thereby handles data of multiple origins:

A constellation of satellites monitoring Earth, day and night, providing high resolution imagery

A constellation of satellites collecting climate recordings of surface and atmosphere chemistry

A long and detailed collection of statistics and area classification reports upon the area

A feedback of the data acquired by the system, in the form of statistic parameters (respective means, mean deviation, etc) and history

● In time detection and prediction even of upcoming hazards

● Reasoning behind the existence / emergence of a crisis – educating the end user on environmental factors sensitivities

● Crisis management plan, designed by our team of environment biologists and specialists

10


GreenSSLMTM: Easily adaptive to the end user’s needs

• Variation of the types and processing levels upon the end-user’s requirements

• Online user interface, with summary reports upon factors of the area and across time

• Online user interface, implemented as a GIS layered map for the user to manage the data acquired

• e-learning support from Aratos Group

11


Procedure Technical Description A p r i o r i s t e p s

– Implementation of environmental mathematical models and image processing algorithms

– Definition of the data needed to be acquired to satisfy the end user’s requirements

– Collection of static land cover information on the area

P r o c e s s i n g s t e p s – Conversion of all input data into

formats able to be handled under a unifying interface

– Application of all the respective computations and evaluation of the environmental significance of the results

– Deduction of statistics and comparison with archived records to created a full report

– Presentation of all the acquired results in a graphical user interface

12


• GreenSSLMTM manages a vast variety and quantity of data in order to calculate a set of indicating parameters, as these are evaluated to be catalytic in the alterations and/or preservations of an ecosystem’s status.

• These are the main factors considered in GreenSSLMTM’s environmental studies. Data received are collected with regard the estimation of these variables and supplementary details, while the results of each computation serve in turn as history information in statistical overviews and reports.

• A synopsis of the indicators used to cover all the possible aspects effecting and describing a natural environment, is given below.

Providing valuable information collected for the most holistic environmental studies for any area, for any place, for any size
