Space-based applications at the service of European society GMES: development of satellite-based and in-situ monitoring and early-warning systems, including for the safety of citizens, and techniques relating to the management of the environment and security (including the management of natural disasters) and their integration with ground-based, ship-borne and airborne components; support for the integration, harmonisation, use and delivery of GMES data (both satellite-based and in-situ, including ground-based, shipborne and airborne) and services. Innovative satellite communication services, seamlessly integrated in the global electronic communication networks, for citizens and enterprises in application sectors encompassing civil protection, e-government, telemedicine, tele-education, search and rescue, tourism and leisure time, personal navigation, fleet management, agriculture and forestry, meteorology and generic users. Development of monitoring technologies and systems for reducing the vulnerability of space-based services and for contributing to the surveillance of space. Applications of space-based systems for risk prevention and risk management and all kinds of emergency, enhancing convergence with non-space systems. Exploration of space Providing RTD support and maximising scientific added value through synergies with initiatives by ESA or national space agencies in the field of space exploration; facilitating the access to scientific data. Support to coordinate efforts for the development of space-borne telescopes and detectors as well as for data analysis in space sciences. RTD for strengthening space foundations Space research and development for long term needs including space transportation; research activities to increase the competitiveness and cost-effectiveness of the European space technology sector. Space sciences including bio-medicine and life and physical sciences in space.
