Description
With farmland covering 50 % of EU territory, sustainable agriculture is a key objective to ensure natural resources remain available in the future. The EU-funded ENVISION project will design a toolbox to monitor service of sustainable agricultural practices all year round. It will use in situ, open data and historical information as well as data made available by the Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS) and Copernicus.
