  1. “Gliders for Research, Ocean Observation and Management”General Assembly FP7-Infra-2011-2.1.1 : Design studies for European Research Infrastrutures 1st October 2011 – 31st December 2014 Duration 39 months – Periods : 2 (month 18 – month 39) Grant Agreement No: 284321 ; Total budget : 3,5 M€ http://www.groom-fp7.eu 19 partners from cy, de, fr, gr, it, no, es, uk

  2. WP1 Project Scientific and Technological coordinationUPMC and all partners

  3. WP1 Objectives • Ensure the coordination of the project on scientific and technological aspects in conformity with the objectives, methods and quality standards described in the contract (task 1.1) • Internal and external communication (task 1.2)

  4. Work progress task 1.1 • 1st General assembly: Kick-off meeting in Nov. 2011 in Paris • 4 formal Steering Committee meetings • Several informal SC meeting during WPs workshops • 1st periodic scientific report (delayed end June 2013) • Risk - contingency action registry established • End of 1st reporting period, March 2013. First report accepted by the EC • 2nd General Assembly, Trieste, 04-05/06/13 • 3 formal Steering Committee meetings • EGO/GROOM meeting, Kiel, 16-17/06/14 • Grant period extension required and accepted, 12/08/14 • Detailed review for 4 key deliverables. Still to be done for D5.1, D5.7 and the final report • 3rd General Assembly, Paris, 19/09/14

  5. Work progress task 1.2 • GROOM website • Paper in MERCATOR-CORIOLIS Newsletter, April 2012, “Towards a global glider infrastructure for the benefit of marine research and operational oceanography” • Paper in "International Innovation": Helping marine science reach new depths (Oct. 2012) • Editorial in "Sea Technology Magazine": Gliders Evolving to Enhance Ocean Observation (Dec. 2012) • Special session at EGU2013 chaired by EGO/GROOM • Ocean Business 2013, Southampton, 09-11/04/13 • GROOM at JCOMM-OCG, Silver Spring, USA, 05-07/09/13 • GROOM at Workshop on Arctic and Marine Research Infrastructures, Rome, 17/09/2013 • GROOM at EuroGOOS, Brussels, 20/11/13 • Special session "Autonomous platforms" at OSM co-chaired by GROOM, 23-28/02/14 • GROOM at OI'14, London, 11-13/03/14

  6. Work progress task 1.2 • GROOM at 2nd ICRI, Athens, 02-04/04/14 • EGO/GROOM at COST Conference in Sopot, Poland, “The predictive power of marine sciences in a chaging climate” • GROOM at "Landscape of the European Research Infrastructures for Environmental Sciences", Paris, 22/05/14 • PLOCAN Glider School, Las Palmas, 14-19/07/14 • GROOM at 6th IEEE/OES Baltic Symposium, Tallinn, 26/05/14 • Glider demonstration and capacity building in Algeria, Sidi Fredj, 12-16/05/14 • EGO/GROOM final meeting, Kiel, 16-17/06/14 • and several others …  STRONG REMINDER: Fill "Dissemination activities" page on Vitamib (!)

  7. Work progress task 1.2: Brochure and "Gliderport booklet" • Extensive distribution of the brochure by the coordinator (OI'14, ICRI, …) + pencils + T-shirts • And by the partners (!) • STRONG REMINDER to all to continue • Be reactive to Daniel and Jelto's solicitations for the booklet

  8. Work progress task 1.2: OI'14 • 9m2 Booth. Animation by UEA, SAMS, UPMC/CNRS, … • 2 (nice) GROOM videos displayed. Can be downloaded from GROOM website for further use • More than 150 GROOM contacts with tracking. Several contacts with students and young people • Participation to 2 OI'14 workshops with Oil&Gas stakeholders First real accurate awareness for us of a potential "industrial" market for the glider activity

  9. GROOM main achievements • Description of the present infrastructure (hardware, personnel, running costs,…) • Survey on possible sensors to implement on gliders for Research, Ocean Observation & Management • New infrastructure components developed and tested (operations, calibration, visualization, risk analysis, mission planning piloting,…) • Outreach (Web sites, training, young audience)

  10. GROOM main achievements • International coordination (USA, AUS, EU and others) • Setup an international community of (best) practice • A first common data format was issued in the 3 main poles of glider activity (EU, USA and AUS). • First agreed evidence Gliders as a component of the GOOS such as the Argo profiling floats, the OceanSites moorings…

  11. GROOM main achievements • Assessment of the possible levels of European integration Definition of the desired levels of European integration by the partner (final report) • Gliders will be included in the next ESFRI roadmap to be done: better assessment at the national level of the priority on a national gliders RI (Sp, Fr: should be OK ; UK, No, It: check) Really investigate the DG REGIO funding schemes?

  12. GROOM main achievements • Numerous scientific papers and communications related to GROOM • STRONG REMINDER: Fill "Dissemination activities" page on Vitamib Not finished yet (3 months extension). Achievements really made concrete after • Review of publishable deliverables (D2.1, D3.5? D4.1? …) and publication if suitable • Write and publish the Final Scientific Report (due to EC before 28/02/2015)

  13. The next steps for gliders… • Continue GROOM participation to next ESFRI roadmap  be ready for 2016 EU calls • Concretize relation between EGO/GROOM and EuroGOOS • BRIDGES Technological proposal for a deep glider submitted to BG6/H2020 led by GROOM • AtlantOS proposal submitted to BG6/H2020. Glider task led by CNRS • JERICO+ proposal submitted to INFRAIA/H2020. TNA for gliders, data management for delayed mode and technological task on sensors • ENVRI+ proposal submitted to INFRADEV/H2020. Small contribution of GROOM Prepare GROOM participation to H2020 calls for 2016-2017. BG calls:MedOS ? INFRA calls: ESFRI implementation?

  14. FP7 plans and achievements • For new or existing RIs, • The EU needs to pave the way towards an efficient MRI ‘ecosystem’ • Member States remain the key actors • Large facilities • Distributed European facilities • Regional Partner Facilities • Linked with EU and national programs, universities & schools • Allow to network with industrial suppliers/users • ’. Without the joint involvement of the scientific communities and the territorial developmentactors, the EU will not succeed in managing this (efficient) ‘ecos-system’

  15. The Future… Marine RIs FP7 Marine RIs H2020 JERICO+ ? GROOM+ ??? ENVRI+? ERIC EuroArgo 2018 2017

  16. The Future… Marine RIs FP7 Marine RIs H2020 JERICO+ ? GROOM ?? FIXO3 ?? EMSO ?? ENVRI+? ERIC EuroArgo 2018 2019 2017

  17. Advisory board • Merged Advisory (scientific) Board and Policy Maker Board • Two step consultation : 3 experts at the GA and review process for the final scientific report and executive summary by all AB members • GROOM @ EuroGOOS : • Which institutional support from EuroGOOS ? • Which kind of concrete actions can be conducted to exploit EGO/GROOM momentum ? • GROOM @ FIXO3 : • Concretize potential GROOM input to WP11 "Optimization of ocean observing capability" ? • Which kind of concrete actions can be conducted to exploit EGO/GROOM momentum ? • GROOM @ EuroArgo and ESFRI : • Which concrete glider work in relation with the EuroARGO ERIC ? • What about an ESFRI trend toward a large Marine RI ?
