Big Data for Migration: Background
Europe is being confronted with the most significant influxes of
migrants and refugees in its history.
One burning issue is the lack of timely information on migration
trends, flows and rates.
Big data applications have been recognized as a potentially powerful
tool to provide direct and indirect indicators of migration trends.
ESA’s IAP is preparing an invitation to tender of the feasibility study
“Big data applications to boost preparedness and response to
migration".
Europe is being confronted with the most significant influxes of
migrants and refugees in its history.
One burning issue is the lack of timely information on migration
trends, flows and rates.
In September 2016, ESA’s IAP has the “Big data
applications to boost preparedness and response to
migration“ invitation to tender.

Why Big data? Which data? Why space tech?
Why Big Data?
Big data applications have been recognized as a potentially powerful
tool to provide direct and indirect indicators of migration trends and
human movements.
Blumenstock 2012 to track migration patterns in Rwanda from
call detail records
Studies on use of geo-located social media (Twitter) data to infer
migration trends.
…
Which Data?
Geolocated social media (e.g.: Facebook, twitter )
Geolocation provided by smartphone’s apps
IP addresses of website logins and sent e-mails
Call detail records
….
Why space tech?
Direct and indirect indicators of migratory flows (e.g.: information on socio-economic factors ,
unusual human activities, etc.) derived from EO data to provide a medium term human
migration forecast (relevant to the mitigation phase)
RPAS are typically part of humanitarian relief activities may provide valuable info

High Altitude Platform Stations (also called
High Altitude Pseudo Satellites)
Significant uptake of HAPS is expected in the medium/long term (Market volume
for HAPS is estimated to grow at 11% CAGR attaining over USD 7 billion by 2024
1)
HAPS could offer advantages and complementary applications over satellites,
terrestrial infrastructures and Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS), at
relatively low cost.
The use of HAPS is considered for a variety of applications, such as maritime and
land surveillance, environmental monitoring, land border control applications,
telecommunications, emergency/public safety communications, intelligent
transportation systems, etc
A number of HAPS development projects have recently reached more advanced
development stages in particular in Europe, which indicates that first operational
services could be expected by 2018 - 2023.
HAPS are aircraft positioned above 20 km altitude, in the stratosphere, for very-
long-duration flights counted in months and even years. These unmanned aircraft
may be airplanes, airships or balloons.

12. Antonino Coppola | 13/07/2016 | Slide 12ESA UNCLASSIFIED - For Official Use
HAPS as future contributors to Big Data
o Enabling applications related to monitoring and surveillance for
maritime, security, environment and emergency response domains
o Enabling Machine-to-Machine communication applications for
connected homes, connected cars, smart office, connected cities,
factories of the future, asset tracking, smart grids.
Main benefits wrt. satellites and terrestrial infrastructure
• HAPS in comparison to terrestrial networks offer larger coverage area, less
interference caused by obstacles and shorter time to deployment.
• A single HAPS platform can replace a large number of terrestrial towers, with
savings in cost, site acquisition time, and environmental impact.
• HAPS offer improved propagation connectivity conditions with respect to
satellites, lower latency, as well as better resolution of images.
• HAPS have the ability to remain continuously over an area for very long
periods (persistence), and can be returned for maintenance or payload
reconfiguration.

Big Data for Critical Infrastructures
…
CI are defined as asset (or system) which, if disrupted or destroyed, seriously
impact the health safety, security or economic well-being of citizens and even the
effective functioning of governments
15. Antonino Coppola | 13/07/2016 | Slide 15ESA UNCLASSIFIED - For Official Use
Critical Infrastructures & Big Data
Rapid exchange of digital information, access to large volumes of data, massive
computing power and access to community tools facilitate the process of turning
data into knowledge, enabling new applications and services that create value for
end users.
Example of such services relevant for the CI are:
Real-time monitoring of the asset and its main sub-systems;
Early warning of problem and associated damage diagnosis;
Protection of the information assets (data and systems) from unauthorized
access
Support the land use planning
The economic and operational benefits are evident in terms of :
Improvement of safety /security and reduction of emergency situations
reduction of service disruption;
optimization of site inspections;
less expenses for damage recovery;
less unauthorized access;
reduction of distress on the surrounding environment.

Role of Space
• Satellite Earth Observation data are valuable for providing med/high
resolution images to enhance situational awareness and enabling change
detection. SatEO data enables wide coverage which is a winning feature
for monitoring of large asset.
• Satellite Navigation provides accurate Position, Navigation and Timing
(PNT). SatNav enables tracking and tracing services (for knowing people
and assets location), and geo-tagging services. SatNav is also required
for Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) operations.
• Satellite Communications provide a means to communicate with the
coordinating centre to and from remote locations where there is no
terrestrial network. In case of network failures or cyber-attacks targeting
terrestrial communication, SatCom is an effective means to increase
communication network robustness and communication resilience.
