GMES Components
GMES is an EU led initiative
Services Component – led by EC• Produces information services in response to European policy priorities in environment and security• Relies on data from in-situ and space component
In-situ component – led by EEA• Observations mostly within national responsibility, with coordination at European level
Space Component – led by ESA• Sentinels - EO missions developed specifically for GMES:• Contributing Missions - EO missions built for purposes other than GMES but offering part of their capacity to GMES (EU/ESA MSs, EUMETSAT, commercial, international)
GMES is a perfect example of a system of systems

Mission Implementation
• Sentinel 4 will be a realised aso a UVN spectrometer embarked on the MTG-S platformso utilisation of TIR data from the IR sounder onboard the same platforms o utilisation of imager data from the MTG-I platforms
• Sentinel 5 will consist of o A UVNS spectrometer embarked on the post-EPS platforms o utilisation of data from the post-EPS IR sounder (IASI NG)o utilisation of post-EPS imager data (METimage)o utilisation of multi-directional polarisation imager if implemented
Mission concept for climate protocol monitoring (lower troposphere) and air quality applications

The need for a Sentinel-5 Precursor
The need for a Sentinel-5 Precursor1. Continuity of dataResearch missions (here Sciamachy, OMI, TES, Mopitt) stop ≤ 2014.
Sentinel-5 on post-EPS not before ~2018.
MetOp data do not satisfy S5 requirements:
• CO and CH4:
No measurement by GOME-2; IASI data have little PBL sensitivity.
• Coarse spatial resolution
2. Transition to operational scheme• Afternoon orbit required for AQ forecast (MetOp: 9:30h).• Use synergy S5 precursor – MetOp to start into observation of diurnal
variation, as needed for AQ monitoring. (Will be picked up by S4 later).
Sentinel 5p will be a realised as a single-satellite atmospheric chemistry mission carrying a UVNS spectrometer, aiming at providing a gap-filler, within the 2014-2020 timeframe

Air pollution is a significant cause of health problems and environment damages worldwide
Sentinel-4 and -5 will monitor the Earth's atmosphere as part of the Europe Union's Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) programme
