Access JRA Evolution in FP7 Common Issues with EuroFleet N1 ESF-SAC (Scientific Advisory Committee) (Inge Jonckheere, ESF) The role of the ESF-Scientific Advisory Committee is:  to assess the scientific demand in term of airborne infrastructures and services,  to evaluate the activities of the EUFAR I3 with regard to the demand, and  to provide National Research Funding Institutions with guidance for establishing multi-lateral agreement on TA, instrumental developments and the long term evolution of the fleet.

Access JRA Evolution in FP7 Common Issues with EuroFleet N2TAC (Trans-national Access Coordination) John Foot (MetOffice-UK) The Transnational Access Co-ordination is a unified management structure that aims at providing a coherent service to the users (proposal evaluation). Corresponding activities include setting up, monitoring and updating of the selection procedures and providing reports on TA activities.

13 EUFAR Mid Term ReviewIntroduction-Jean-Louis Brenguier Toulouse, 8 June 2007 Introduction The EUFAR Fleet Consortium European Integration Long Term Objectives Expected Impact Activities Networking ESF-SAC TA Coordination Future of the Fleet Expert Working Groups Education & training E-Communication Trans-nat. Access JRA Evolution in FP7 Common Issues with EuroFleet N3FF (Future of the Fleet) Audrey Jolly (Meteo-France-FR) The Activity on the Future of the Fleet addresses organisational issues raised by the extension of Transnational Access beyond the specific Community support, and by the anticipated management of large scale infrastructures that do not exist yet in Europe. N3FF thus aims at providing the ESF-SAC with respective technical solutions, evaluating the existing capabilities of the fleet, and elaborating on possible enhancements of the fleet in response to the requirements from the ESF-SAC.

Access JRA Evolution in FP7 Common Issues with EuroFleet UNIT COST The EC model for the calculation of Unit Cost is not suited for mobile infrastructures such as instrumented aircraft or research vessels It is not consistent with the usual accounting methodology of the operators, that is based on immobilisation days and flight hours. It is possible to define a Unit Cost based on annual direct and indirect costs and the annual level of activities in term of immobilisation days and flight hours. It is also possible to estimate how many Units is an immobilisation day, how many Units is a flight hour. The actual cost of an experiment will thus be the sum of units corresponding to the number of immobilisation days plus the number of units corresponding to the number of flight hours, multiplied by the value of the unit. Since reseach vessels have similar concerns, EUROFLEET and EUFAR could join for approaching the commission and negotiate a better methodology.

Access JRA Evolution in FP7 Common Issues with EuroFleet Planning of Occupation The EUFAR Web site provides comprehensive information about aircraft, their performance, their instrumentation. A crucial information is the planning of occupation for users to select the aircraft and a time slot for their experiment. The planning of occupation however is not updated regularly It is necessary to develop Internet solutions for automatic updating of the planning. A common software is not feasible because the requirements of the operators are to diverse, from excell files to commercial aircraft company software The solution that is explored today is to develop diverse interfaces with each operator’s application and the EUFAR Web site. During FP7, EUFAR and EUROFLEET could exchange information on progress and solutions tested in both projects.

Access JRA Evolution in FP7 Common Issues with EuroFleet Trans-national Access at Equal Terms The long term objective of the I3s is to provide access to the infrastructures, irrespective of the origin of the applicant. That means extendind the TA scheme beyond EC support. Such a scheme requires the involvement of the parent institutions supporting the infrastructures at the national level. EUROFLEET has already some experience as part of the OFEG activities EUFAR and EUROFLEET could develop common schemes for access exchange and provision of access to countries which are not operating such infrastructures. In some countries, the parent institutions for aircraft and vessels are the same
