Assessing and revealing the dynamic of landscape changes.
Remote sensing of the pollution of separate environmental compartments (water, soil and plants, crops).
Land-use assessment, providing solutions for the economically “competent” planning and management of agricultural resources.
Remote diagnosis of productivity of natural pastures and land degradation.
Efficient data management and data sharing adopting international standards from the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) (WMS, WFS, WCS) and International
Organization for Standardization (ISO 19139, 19115)
Main activities
Assessing the territories from positions of their suitability for site planning with civic, industrial and recreation purposes.GEOGRAPHIC

Integration into GLOBAL Initiatives:cooperation and networking
Project proposal - SDI---Moun-tEro
Developing Spatial Data Infrastructure: an effective tool for assessing erosion of
mountainous territories. aimed to
• Adopting an integrated approach ofmonitoring the ecological state ofmountainous farmlands in South Caucasusand Central Asia using high-resolutionRemote Sensing Data (RSD).
• Improving a state-of-the-art Spatial DataInfrastructure (SDI) at the leadingArmenian, Georgian and Tajikorganizations able to analyze the data andpresent the results to stakeholders.
APPROVED WITHOUT FUNDING!!!
aimed to better understand the vulnerability andstability of inland water ecosystems throughregular remote monitoring in order to buildcapacity to use this knowledge for moreeffective decision making.
