Abstract
|
With the ongoing climate change, the pressure on nature, biodiversity and our own living conditions increases steadily. To mitigate these threats by effective adaptation strategies and counter measures a frequent and area-wide monitoring of the environment is crucial.
Benefiting from Earth Observation satellite data, the GMES Land Service provides accurate and cross-border harmonised geo-information at global to local scales. Within GMES the geoland2 project aims to organise a qualified production network, to build, validate and demonstrate operational processing lines and to set-up a user driven product quality assurance process.
