GRAAL: GMES for Regions: Awareness and Access Link
![]()
GRAAL is a project co-funded by the 7th Framework Programme, the EU's instrument specifically targeted at supporting research and development. Its ambition is to become a matchmaker between European local and regional authorities and GMES. View website here...
EUROGI has within the GRAAL-Project accepted the task of building a bridge between the industry sectors of GI service providers and Earth monitoring value adders, both mainly composed of SMEs. For this task, EUROGI is currently organizing an on-line EM-GI survey within EUROGI’s members’ membership. The aim is to collect information about the usefulness of GMES for applications and GI operations at regional and local level. The results will be used to give the EU institutions feedback from the GI community, mainly the GI service providers.

European Commission - INSPIRE Project
In Europe a major recent development has been the entering in force of the INSPIRE Directive in May 2007, establishing an infrastructure for spatial information in Europe to support Community environmental policies, and policies or activities which may have an impact on the environment. INSPIRE is based on the infrastructures for spatial information established and operated by the 27 Member States of the European Union. The Directive addresses 34 spatial data themes needed for environmental applications, with key components specified through technical implementing rules. This makes INSPIRE a unique example of a legislative “regional” approach. View website here...
