The Constellation concept was first proposed during a discussion at the 19th CEOS Plenary, in London, in November 2005. The first Paper of the Constellation Concept was presented at the CEOS Strategic Implementation Team meeting (SIT-18), in Frascati, in March 2006, and strongly endorsed by the CEOS Principals. The concept attempts to provide agencies with tools for implementation of the elements that have been previously discussed in international forums (GEO Work Plan, GCOS Implementation Plan). This provides a solid foundation from the community providing requirements. Though agency spending is governed by national requirements, CEOS seeks synergies among member agency programs to fulfil GEOSS requirements, defining guidelines and standards to help agencies to determine from the outset what can be achieved. The constellations concept will allow the development of a commonalties approach among different agencies. At the heart of the application of the Constellations concept is the definition of a series of standards (specific to each Constellation) - required to be satisfied for any mission to be included in the constellation - and a process of recognition/acceptance, whereby an agency applies to SIT to have one or more of its missions (ideally from the outset of planning) recognised as meeting the constellation standards and thereby satisfying the relevant user community needs.
