Funding for European Earth Observation until 2020

摘要

The European Council has secured Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) programme funding through 2020. The multi-annual financial framework -MFF - is a seven-year plan for the EU's budget. On 8 February, European heads of state and government agreed to include GMES in the 2014-2020 MFF for GMES Services, In-Situ Component (a network of sensors on the ground, at sea and in the air) and the Space Component, thus securing funding for the programme's long-term operational phase.
