Earth Observation activities and applications in ENEA
GEO Energy Expert Meeting on Energy & Earth Observations
Geneva, 28-29 August 2006

ENEA, the Italian National Agency for NewTechnologies, Energy and the Environment is a public undertaking operating in the fields of energy, the environment and new technologies to support competitiveness and sustainable development.
ENEA is mainly called upon:• to promote and carry out basic and applied research
and innovation technology activities, also through prototypes and product industrialization;
• to disseminate and transfer technologies, encouraging their use in productive and social sectors;
• to provide high-tech services, studies, tests and evaluations to both public and private bodies and enterprises.

Mission and scope of the Mission and scope of the ENEA Earth Observation and GIS UnitENEA Earth Observation and GIS Unit
The Unit’s tasks mainly concern design and development of advanced data-processing methodologies for applications of technologies like Aero-spatial Earth Observation (EO), GIS (Geographic Information System) and GPS (Global Positioning System).
The efforts tackle all the R&D problems concerning the comprehensive integration of those technologies in order to design and implement innovative systems (HW and SW) being functional to different final goals.
Those problems include developing of remote sensing image processing algorithms, design and implementation of GIS, planning of: in situ ground-truth measurements; GPS data acquisition; aero-campaign, etc...
The application fields span from global climate research to environmental pollution monitoring, from land use detection to urban planning, etc…
Final users are mostly Italian Public Administration Organisms (Central, Regional and Local). Collaboration with SME, UE and international Organizations is pursued.

Human resources, equipmentHuman resources, equipment and know-howand know-how
EquipmentThe EDI (ENEA Digital Imagery) system located at ENEA-Casaccia Research Centre. It is a tight integration of numerous work stations, PC’s, devices, proprietary algorithms and SW environments (ERDAS, ESRI, ENVI-IDL, E-Cognition, PCI, etc…), at the technological state of the art. It is specialized in processing geographic raster and vector data
Human resources.15-20 people are in charge. - ENEA researchers (majority) - fellowships, - stages.
Know-how.Remarkable amount of multidisciplinary technical-scientific knowledge and relationships with external Organizations, built up in several years of activity strongly oriented toward EO applications.

TRIDENT (Three-dimensional Restitution via Internet of Digital Elevation Networks in Towns) - V FP of the EU
Design and development of a prototype system for organise and manage urban information, based on realistic 3D models of the city. Digital aero-photogrammetry techniques and GIS have been used to generate 3D urban models and to create a VRML photo-realistic description of buildings accessible via internet.

GIS-ILA (Geographic Information System – Italian Logistics in Antarctica).
GIS-ILA has been developed for PNRA Consortium, to increase the management capabilities of Logistics in Antarctica.
SITAC (GIS for natural presidential park of
Caselporziano). The SITAC, on demand of
“Accademia Nazionale delle Scienze, detta dei XL” permits the
effective management and the safeguard of the ecosystems in the park.

ConclusionsConclusions
Pursuing cooperation with National and International Organizations concerned with Earth Observation and GIS, the Unit makes available valuable elements like:
- Specially equipped systems for spatial data processing and well skilled human resources for using them;
- Notable and qualified amount of know-how about EO applications;- Front end to the very numerous Institutions of the Italian P.A. that need
EO applications.
