What is « MyOcean » ?
MyOcean is a PROJECT– An FP7 project, the GMES « Marine Fast Track » project– 3 years ; has started on 1st April 2009, will end 31 March 2012– Cost 20 M€/year, with 11 M€/year EC funding
• 2009 – 2010 – 2011 – (2012)
MyOcean is a SERVICE– The main component of the « GMES » Marine Core Service– Global & regional Ocean monitoring and forecasting
• Marine Core Service
MyOcean is a TEAM of European partners– 61 partners, out of 29 countries ; an effort of ~150 person/year– 20 core partners committed for operations; european best monitoring
and forecasting systems • Pan-European team

The challenge
Marine Core Service
A European Marine “core” serviceseeking for the “european added value”
From GMES MCS Implementation Group report by P.Ryder & al, oct 2005
In 3 years, create the maximum “core” value for the users by providing on a reliable basis “the common denominator data for all users in the marine sector, in other words the information for existing & new downstream services.”

The MyOcean Service, status
The service has started the first day with a demo– a V0 version is available– It is based on the continuation of MERSEA FP6
The service is regularly improved : target is 2010– Homogeneisation, better definition, new products– The VERSION 1 is expected in Oct. 2010
Service definition is a living process– List of the core products– Management of redundancies (necessary, unnecessary)
The Product Portfolio gives a list of products– Model data, Observation Data
Marine Core Service
The MyOcean areas The Global Ocean + 6 European Seas
Marine Core Service
The MyOcean offer
MyOcean will “deliver regular and systematic reference information (processed data,
elaborated products) on the state of the oceans and regional seas: at the resolution required by intermediate users & downstream service
providers, of known quality and accuracy, for the global and European regional seas.”
Physical state of the ocean, and primary ecosystem
For global ocean, and main European basins and seas
Large and basin scale ; mesoscale physics
Hindcast, Nowcast, Forecast Data, Assimilation and Models

The MyOcean value … for a Marine Core Service porfolio
A simple and single portfolio of products for the whole pan-European MyOcean marine core service
A reference definition shared by users, producers and stakeholders, regularly updated

The MyOcean production system
Marine Core Service
The MyOcean System, status
The 12 production centres are active– 5 Thematic Assembly Centres (Observations)
– 7 Monitoring and Forecasting Centres (Model/Assimilation)
Consistency internal to the Prod. Centres is the priority– Each Centre is based on a partnership
The Common components are under development– The Management Information System
– The WebPortal (only a demo is in place)
– The Service Desk
A first Technical Review (end Oct) will assess the situation

Qualification Steps
Marine Core Service
Project Review, status
MyOcean follows EC guidelines for Service/System Qualification– Based on Eumetsat Qualification review
On 26-28 Oct, the « Product Critical review » and the « System Requirement review »
– Currently under Preparation – Hundreds of pages written by Partners : very heavy burden
A Panel Review has been set up– EC Experts : P.Ryder (co-Chair), G.Campbell, G.Duchossois, R.Husband– External Experts : L.Sarlo (co-Chair) + technical and user experts
MCS IG could play a role in « reviewing » for EC this Review Process:
– MyOcean is the first FP7 project one to explore this new process– A Review every 6 months– The cost is heavy for partners : some adjustments towards efficiciency
could be discussed

User Interface, status
User Requirements Documents (URDs) – WP18 (K.Nittis) has collected URDs from a wide range of partners : first
description of Users requirements (mostly national centres)
Service Level Agreements (SLAs)– WP17 (D.Obaton) has prepared the standard SLA (for Std and Std+ users)
Major Accounts : EEA and EMSA– Ongoing discussion with EEA (ref. partner INGV) and EMSA (ref. partner
NERSC) – The most advanced process is with EEA. The process is slow : first SLA in
time.
Service provided– Some requests from « Standard » Users going through the Desk, despite a
weak added value for the moment– In Oct (this year), the open data policy will be the only rule
