General objectives

The aim of GTIS CAP is to define and to validate an integrated information system that will serve both the European and national administrative bodies in charge of the Common Agricultural Policy and the producers of vegetal products for consumers and for livestock. GTIS CAP will complete the IACS/LPIS data with other data obtained from remote sensing and will define simple geo-traceability indicators aimed at the management, control and monitoring of the CAP and which can also be used in integrated agricultural management systems.
GTIS CAP will facilitate online access to this geo-traceability data and will ensure greater efficiency in checking and conformity of good agricultural practices, in line with CAP recommendations.

The GTIS CAP project comprises four different types of work:

  1. The evaluation of new functionalities necessary for the integration of geo-traceability into existing tools and for it to become a CAP management, follow up and monitoring tool which will also be useful for producers.
  2. Definition of norms and standards that will enable the interoperability of IACS/LPIS geo-referenced data and functionalities for CAP management, follow up and monitoring.
  3. Definition of simple and easy-to-use geo-indicators provided by satellite images.
  4. Implementation and validation of the evolution of the integrated system in two test regions in order to produce after experimentation by producers groups a recommendation for European and national administrative bodies.
