To implement meaningful user data, access a preliminary identification of the user segments and relevant functional requirements has been carried out. The consortium intends to revise this preliminary analysis together with JRC in the first phase of the project:
should any gap be identified, the analysis will be updated, and the implementation workflow adapted to the newly identified use cases.

The identification of the user ecosystem is based on the extended experience of the various partner and a desktop review of relevant European projects in the field of floods, natural hazards and satellite data that developed such analysis.
Studies carried out by ESA in respect to the Thematic Exploitation platforms as well as within the CEOS working group on disasters have been considered. Although the consulted analyses have been developed with reference to services potentially different to the one considered in this project, many similarities can be found with the needs of the potential GFMS users.


Field Purpose Through
Civil Protection NRT situational awareness
  1. automatic feed on flood mapping for specific area
  2. automatic acquisition of flood mapping products on specific clients
Operational Hydrological forecasting NRT verification of impact-wise forecasts
  1. Automatic acquisition of flood mapping products on EFAS/GloFAS
  2. Automatic acquisition of flood mapping products in other national/regional/global forecast systems (Gloffis, WW Hype, FANFAR)
DRR-related planning Retrieval of historical flood-prone areas access to the full archive within a specific client application and draft sets of prescriptions
to decrease the current risk level or avoid creating new risk
Research Calibaration/validation of hydrological/hydraulic forecast models Download the entire archive of the global flood monitoring product output layers in raster format to calibrate / validate hydrological/hydraulic forecast models
Test flood mapping alternative algorithms Access and download the S1 data used to derive the flood maps over a certain region for specific events and compare them to GFMS outcomes
Flood mapping algorithms calibration Upload a proprietary algorithm on the Cloud and run it on the full archive of the GFMS maps or on a temporal/spatial subset of it
Flood models calibration Access the full archive the flood maps in raster or vector format and calibrate the model on the basis of the historical flood maps
Insurance NRT Disaster loss estimate Access in NRT the flood maps in raster or vector format to outline a footprint-based estimate of disaster loss
Non-expert end use (NGOs, flood-related service providers, general public) NRT actionable information
  1. To receive a ready-to-print map in NRT for a certain event in a selected region
  2. To receive short feeds depicting in NRT the flood status over a certain region
  3. To receive notifications on relevant floods in NRT
