The Growing Use of GMES across Europe's Regions

The Growing Use of GMES across Europe's Regions" Launch Event at the European Parliament. NEREUS - Network of European Regions Using Space Technologies and ESA - European Space Agency, are pleased to announce the launch of a joint publication with the title "The Growing Use of GMES across Europe's Regions", a collection of 67 illustrative articles on regional GMES applications. Addressed to a non-specialist audience, the collection illustrates the strategic value of the Programme for regional administrations and authorities in the context of territorial management and forward planning. The variety of existing and potential regional uses across Europe shows how GMES not only contributes to better informed decision making but also how the data can be exploited to support sustainable environmental protection with a long term perspective. Quoting enduser experiences, the publication gives a first-hand impression on the impact of GMES on regional development and policy implementation.
