Contract ENV4-CT96-0359 <strong>ALPMON</strong><br />

Figure 1: Test sites: (1)=Dachstein Mountains, (2)=Cordevole, Region of Veneto, (3)=Tarvisio,<br />

(4)=Northern Kalkalpen of Bavaria, (5)=Engadine.<br />

In order to achieve the complex task an integrated approach was necessary, which takes account of<br />

developments in areas as diverse as alpine forestry, agriculture and residential developments.<br />

Solutions to such a complex problem necessitated an interdisciplinary approach, which involves the<br />

various specific disciplines of remote sensing, GIS and experts from the user/customer side.<br />

A further result of the project is a concept for the establishment of a remote sensing based alpine<br />

information system introduced to the Alpine Convention (Customer on the European level). In order to<br />

meet the requirements and needs of the Alpine Convention and the involved national administrations<br />

an intensive execution of the customers needs was carried out. Another application task is to<br />

aggregate classified parameters of <strong>ALPMON</strong> into the CORINE-nomenclature of level 3 in order to<br />

make both data sets compatible.<br />
