1 ESA Space Weather Strategy in the International Context Juha Pekka Luntama Space Weather Manager ESA SSA Programme Office Space Weather Segment

2 ESA SSA SWE Segment Objective Detection and forecasting of Space Weather events and their effects on European space assets and ground based infrastructure by Leveraging European expertise in all areas of space weather Building an network of space weather services based on high quality data, state-of-the-art modelling and scientific know-how. Advancing space weather service provision for SWE customers & stakeholders according to the SWE CRD baseline as part of a sustainable network ESA UNCLASSIFIED For Official Use Slide 2

5 International Collaboration for Operational SWE Measurements Continuous 24/7 ground based measurements require global networks of sensors => international collaboration and data sharing are mandatory Very limited operational SWE measurement capability in space today => long term planning of a measurement system required urgently => development of an affordable and sustainable operational system requires wide international collaboration ESA continues active participation in the international forums for global space weather strategy, coordination and standardisation ESA is looking forward for collaboration with international partners to ensure continued availability of critical SWE measurements: specific interest in coordinating the approaches for the development of Lagrange missions (L1, L5) ESA UNCLASSIFIED For Official Use Slide 5
