VISIONS FROM THE SKY: Growing and Learning with CLMS

The meeting “VISIONS FROM THE SKY: Growing and Learning with CLMS,” which will take place at ISPRA headquarters in Rome and in hybrid format, represents the final event of the first phase of the CLMS National Collaboration Programme.

The event provides an opportunity to present the experiences and activities launched under the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed on 9 October 2024 between ISPRA and the European Environment Agency (EEA). This agreement has seen ISPRA play a leading role through its strategic function as National Focal Point and coordinator of the Eionet network, strengthening Italy’s collaboration with the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service (CLMS).

The initiative is part of the collaboration programmes promoted by the European Commission to integrate Copernicus services—including those related to the atmosphere (CAMS) and climate change (C3S)—with national technical excellence.

Pillars of the Initiative

Over the past year and a half, the programme has pursued three ambitious objectives:

  • Information Synergy: strengthening information exchange and the development of shared monitoring products.
  • Data Integration: promoting coherence between national thematic services (based on in situ data, remote sensing, and modelling) and European standards.
  • Local Innovation: developing new monitoring tools based on Copernicus products to address the specific needs of the Italian territory.

Results and Future Perspectives

Thanks to the continuous dialogue with the European Environment Agency (EEA)—including the hosting of talented young PhD researchers at the Agency for research activities—the programme promotes the wider adoption of satellite data in environmental applications.

The event programme will present a wide range of practical use cases, from land consumption monitoring and wildfire tracking to advanced flood risk management.

The event will also feature the in-person participation of an expert from the European Environment Agency (EEA).
