Norrænn netviðburður um landgerð, landnotkun og vistgerðakortlagningu
Þann 16. apríl 2026 tók Ísland þátt í skipulagningu norræns netviðburðar um landgerð, vistgerðakortlagningu, Copernicus Land og fjarkönnun jarðar. Viðburðurinn var skipulagður í samstarfi við önnur Norðurlönd sem hluti af National Collaboration Programme á vegum Copernicus Land Monitoring Service.
Fundurinn leiddi saman þátttakendur víðs vegar af Norðurlöndum og var þátttaka frá Íslandi góð. Hann var verðmætt tækifæri til að miðla þekkingu, læra af nálgunum hvers lands og ræða sameiginlegar þarfir, áskoranir og möguleg notkunartilvik.
Meðal umfjöllunarefna voru kortlagning landnotkunar og landgerðar, yfirstandandi verkefni í vistgerðakortlagningu, vistkerfabókhald, Copernicus Land Monitoring Service, evrópskir stefnu- og lagaumgjörðir, lífeðlisfræðilegar breytur og gögn um jarðhreyfingar. Viðburðurinn stuðlaði einnig að söfnun þarfa innlendra notenda og aðkomu þeirra að mótun framtíðarþróunar CLMS.

Nordic online event on land cover and habitat mapping
On 16 April 2026, Iceland took co-organized an online Nordic event on land cover, habitat mapping, Copernicus Land and Earth Observation. The event was planned together with other Nordic countries as part of the National Collaboration Programme for the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service.
The meeting brought together participants from across the Nordic region, with good participation from Iceland. It provided a valuable opportunity to exchange knowledge, learn from each other’s national approaches, and discuss common needs, challenges and potential use cases.
Topics included land use and land cover mapping, ongoing habitat mapping projects, ecosystem accounting, Copernicus Land Monitoring Services, European policy frameworks, biophysical variables and ground motion data. The event also helped collect national user requirements and involve users in shaping the future development of CLMS.
