Projects


GISIG has promoted various European Projects on GIS networking initiatives, in terms of transfer of know-how and technologies, and of information collection and diffusion. We aim at realising the co-operation among GIS operators through the promotion and development of joint European projects (in the field of education and training, research and development, as well as regional development policies).
Such projects are mainly devoted to the technology transfer towards SMEs and Local Public Authorities, and to the exchange of experiences at European level, also promoting the international cooperation with particular emphasis towards the Central and Eastern European Countries.
