The European Space Agency’s tender approved the project proposal “Ecosystem Services for Green Urban Developmnet and Climate Change Adaptation”. This project proposal is the result of many years of interdisciplinary research in the field of geodesy, geoinformatics and ecology. The project holder is the Faculty of Geodesy, University of Zagreb, with partners from Green Stories Ltd. and the State Geodetic Administration.
Project’s main goals are to design, develop, and demonstrate the Copernicus-based, Earth observation service intended for high-resolution mapping of the urban space and ecosystem functions of the green infrastructure, to examine and map the needs and requirements in the sector of urban green development and climate change adaptation and assess the potential of Copernicus services products, and EO data to fulfil these requirements and to design and produce a set of user-approved, general EO-based and Climate data products as the supporting tool for construction of the Green Urban Development plans, Climate change adaptation strategies, and other related needs in urban spaces
The project is funded by the European Space Agency.
