This online portal, established by the Land Information Stakeholder Community, provides an overview of the datasets available in a large variety of data repositories across Europe (e.g. on servers supplied by legally mandated public bodies such as the EEA or JRC, or numerous project-related websites).

An easy-to-use web-map server provides previews of the existing datasets ranging from local urban information to global datasets. Further, related meta-data and details regarding access options and conditions of use are given.

The Water Quality Services address the Water Framework Directive (WFD), a main component of the European environmental legislation.

The services focus on identification and management of nutrient and pesticide inputs into the water cycle resulting from diffuse and point sources and provide amongst other Land Cover Mapping Products, GIS data sets enabling spatially explicit working and reporting on issues related to WFD as well as Operating Water Quality Models.

The GMES Land Spatial Planning Service provide spatially referenced and consistent geo-information for monitoring of urban structure, urban growth and soil sealing in support of reporting obligations.

Products comprise spatially explicit land cover and land use maps and downstream products combining EO-derived data with in-situ information.

Outputs are maps, statistics, indicators and scenarios of land take trends and the impact of land consumption.

The Service for Environmental Resource Management in Africa ensures permanent access to high quality pre-processed data for all African countries by using advanced satellite telecommunication infrastructures, it.

Products of the service comprise advanced environmental parameters (in particular related to vegetation conditions), processed according to standard procedures, as well as maps such as land cover maps, forest maps, etc.

The Forest Monitoring Services provide innovative, timely, cost-effective and quality-assured forest information to support reporting on national and international policies and directives.

Standardised high-capacity processing chains with certified quality assurance procedures guarantee cost-efficient and high-quality products like forest maps and indices, carbon stock assessments and related statistics.

Making use of earth observation methodologies allows retrieving spatially explicit information on the state of forests for large areas.

The Observatory of Natural Carbon fluxes of geoland (ONC) provides a pre-operational global accounting system, dealing with the impact of weather and climate variability on soil and vegetation carbon fluxes and stocks.

The service capitalises on existing tools and expertice of European meteorological services such as the integration of in situ and satellite observations by using data assimilation and cross validation techniques.

This online expert portal, established in the frame of the Geoland2 project, provides tools to use or support all products generated in the Geoland2 project. The portal provides, amongst others, expert tools to:

• Discover available dataset series, datasets and services: a catalogue service allows you to view and query related meta-data.
• View and access available datasets: an online data access client allows you to view data from WMS layers or download data from WCS and WFS services.
• Order available datasets: an ordering client allows you to order data available from the catalogues, possibly customized towards your needs.

The portal provides further a centralized source of detailed information about the datasets (e.g. validation reports, product user manuals).
