STATUS: Finished

Gisat is joining the GSE Land project as service provider partner.

GSE Land is a project funded by the European Space Agency (ESA) within the European GMES initiative – a joint approach of ESA and the European Commission.

The project responds to a number of European directives and policies and aims to support users across Europe in their efforts of fulfilling their obligations arising from these new developments. In particular in Czech Republic, GSE Land services will address support of the Water Framework Directive (WFD), the Urban Environment Thematic Strategy (UTS) and the regulations related to the Thematic Strategy on Soil Protection (STS).

GSE Land joins the three preceeding ESA GSE projects that had already worked on land applications and brought these to a status of pre-maturity during the GSE Stage-1 programme:

  • SAGE addressing water pollution, water abstraction by irrigation, agri-environmental as well as soil sealing indicators
  • GMES Urban Services (GUS) providing urban mapping and monitoring services
  • CoastWatch (land part) supporting an integrated coastal zone management

The consortia and their skills have been merged in order to provide a joint portfolio of mature GSE Land Information Services. GSE Land is led by Infoterra GmbH and conducted in close conjunction with numerous complementary activities within other GMES projects.
