The overall Goals of EOMonDis are achieved by four main tasks
- Requirements Assessment: User, market and technical requirement assessment.
- Innovation and Development: Developing improved forest monitoring products and prototyping a service platform.
- Demonstration and Validation: Product testing and verification in four test areas; customisation of the service platform according to user requests.
- Service Sustainability: Development of a three year business concept based on dissemination and marketing activities.
