01Deployment scenarios
3 ways the grid is deployed here.
From the sector research, each with the observatory template that serves it where one exists.
Template · displacement-site
Displacement-site connectivity and sensing
Point-to-multipoint wireless, satellite backhaul, solar and water-point sensors with protection safeguards.
Hardware & power · Sensors & instruments · Connectivity · Earth observation & GeoAI
Template · gbon-gap-filler
Anticipatory-action hydromet nodes
Stations deployed through UN implementing entities of the systematic-observations financing pathway.
02Proof
What buyers ask to see.
The evidence a procurement in this sector asks for, from the sector research. Each item is produced by the grid as a record, not written up afterwards.
- UN vendor registration
- Long-term agreement eligibility
- Humanitarian standards alignment
- Data protection
- Local capacity transfer
- Total cost of ownership
03Participation
