GI-CLAN SDIC main topics

Coastal landscape it is the meeting point of the
natural and human features of a coastal
territory GI-CLAN will be developed according
with the provisions of the European Landscape
Convention
Coastal Knowledge Building the building of
coastal knowledge grounds on easily accessible,
sharable and updated data and information,
collected on a scientific base
Coastal governance, coastal planning and coastal
design
- Governance policy definition, ICM choices and
needs, statement of objectives.
- Planning strategies, specific objectives,
extension of interventions in an operational
perspective. Integration among scientists,
actors, planners and decision makers is
essential.
- Design referred to specific actions often
at a local scale. It implies a participated
integration especially towards local communities.
Waterfront management subject to high human
pressure and a multitude of uses, in the European
context it is a regional and not only an urban
issue.

HUMBOLDT
Development of a Framework for Data Harmonisation
and Service Integration

Objective HUMBOLDT will contribute to the
implementation of an European Spatial Data
Infrastructure (ESDI) that integrates the
diversity of spatial data available from the
multitude of European organizations. To achieve
this objective and to maximise the benefits
gained from this integration, the requirements of
INSPIRE, of GMES, of the environmental agencies
and of other related activities in the EU will be
met.

THE SEVENTH FRAMEWORK PROGRAMME
(2007 2013)
The framework programme (FP) is the European
Unions main instrument for funding research and
development.
FPs have been implemented since 1984 and cover a
period of five years. It has been proposed for
FP7, however, to run for seven years since
January 2007.

THE FOUR PROGRAMMES OF THE 7FP
The proposed 7FP will be organised in four
programmes corresponding to four basic components
of European research

Cooperation supporting research activities in
trans-national cooperation (also between EU and
Third Countries)
Ideas enhancing dynamism, creativity and
excellence of EU research
People strengthening the human potential in
research and technology (e.g. Marie Curie
Actions)
Capacity supporting research infrastructures,
research for the benefit of SMEs research
potential of European Regions (Regions of
Knowledge) as well as stimulating the realisation
of the full research potential of the enlarged
Union

41
THE NINE THEMES OF THE 7FP The themes identified
