Hana Kubíčková, Plan4all

Plan4all association (project partner of the PoliRural project) became one of the 133 Participating Organizations of the Group on Earth Observation (GEO). Due to the relatively short history of Plan4all, becoming a Participation Organization of the GEO is considered as a significant achievement and appreciation of our work and the work of our members. (See also the announcement at GEO’s website)

The main role of Participating Organizations is to Influence technical and policy decisions and contribute to the GEO Work Programme, and to benefit from the global community of Earth observation experts in sharing knowledge in the area of the GEO engagement priorities, namely regarding climate change, disaster risk reduction and the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

The key activities of Plan4all include utilisation of Earth observation data, sensor networks, crowdsourced/citizens science data and other geospatial data in various specialisms including spatial/urban planning, rural development, transport, environment, tourism and precision/autonomous agriculture.

By becoming a Participating Organization in the GEO, Plan4all hopes for better alignment of its activities with other members, sharing experience and contributing to the GEO community.
