Uncovering SDGs-EYES
The SDGs-EYES Research and Innovation Action aims at boosting the European capacity for monitoring Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) based on Copernicus through building a portfolio of decision-making tools. The focus is on the monitoring of seven SDGs indicators related to the environment from an inter-sectoral perspective, aligning with EU Green Deal priorities and challenges.
SDGs-EYES aims at bringing together research and industry experts together with different stakeholders communities to build a scientific, technological and user engagement framework for monitoring SDGs indicators.
SDGs-EYES exploits and combines data from Copernicus’s six core services to demonstrate the feasibility of tailored services, making them available to and exploitable by users to quantify selected indicators from three interconnected UN Sustainable Development Goals – from Climate (SDG13), Ocean (SDG14), Land (SDG 15).
