  About Cube4EnvSec  

Dr. Jamie Shea, retired Deputy Assistant Secretary General for Emerging Security Challenges at NATO Headquarters in Brussels, Belgium: "NATO is currently stepping up its efforts to address the security challenges resulting from the accelerating rate of global climate change. One key role that the alliance can play is to improve its predictive modelling on how climate change can be a stress multiplier on vital eco-systems that can lead to social and political instability in regions that are closely tied to NATO’s own security. The new project Cube4EnvSec under the NATO Science for Peace and Security Programme is a prime example of how NATO can mobilise the best expertise and knowledge of the scientific community to make a crucial difference."

Capability Gap

"Working off the same map and sharing it" and "the right data, at the right time, in the right format" is required for any orchestrated activity in Transnational Security and Environment Protection, in particular the NATO Federated Mission Network (FMN). The corresponding capabilities are not available today to the extent needed.

Mission

Cube4EnvSec responds to this capbility gap by demonstrating how humans and tools can exploit seamlessly federated, AI-enabled spatio-temporal datacube services. A paradigm of "any query, any time, on data anywhere" becomes reality, integrating fixed and moving geo data sources for use by fixed and moving consumers. Based strictly on open standards a plethora of clients can tap into the data resources for access, analysis, fusion, and federation.

As the optimally suited platform, the rasdaman datacube engine was chosen for its proven flexibility, scalability, and standards support.

Duration and Funding

The Cube4EnvSec project was in part funded by the NATO Science for Peace and Security (SPS) program, with a runtime from May 2022 through October 2024.

Scientific Advisor and NATO-Side Coordinator

LtCol Rene Heise (NATO-HQ) acts as scientific advisor and coordinator for this SPS-project. Heise works in NATO’s Emerging Security Challenges Division in Brussels, Belgium. Previously, he has served as head of Geo-sections at the German Air Force Air Operations Command and as acting Chief METOC Officer and Section Head at the NATO Allied Command Operations. He is a member of the Global Military Advisory Council on Climate Change.
