Summary

The main goal of the current project is the need to support the EU Member States (MS) who have to oversee the EUDR, with an approach which can be used to help them identify and verify the crop type and geolocations that will be reported as part of the due diligence from companies dealing with the commodities. The main target audience in the tender are the designated Competent National Authorities (CNAs) in the MS who will have to undertake the monitoring and verification of the information provided by the companies on the 7 commodities. The system will be based on the use of ESA’s Copernicus Sentinel data as well as required ancillary and in situ data for the different geographic regions. The CNAs are seen as ‘Early Adopters’ of the proposed system or mechanism that will be developed
