Scientific advances in the knowledge and skills required for the application of the most important models for simulating land use and cover changes (LUCC) and for the modelling of vegetation phenology.
The creation of a database and multiscale maps of the LUCC simulations for the different study areas in Spain, France and Mexico, amongst others, will enable the model to be applied in other areas and situations.
The obtaining of modelling maps of vegetation phenology in the Iberian Peninsula and Europe, which will be made available for the management of natural vegetation.
Advances in the methodological knowledge of the models will enable us to integrate functions in order to increase their productivity and will allow us to propose modifications or new means of validating the simulations.
The passing on of the methodological advances achieved in the project to other interested institutions that are developing and distributing LUCC simulation models.
The proposal of LUCC and vegetation phenology scenarios in Horizon 2020, which will provide support for decision-making in territorial planning.
The experience of going beyond the limits of pure research by encouraging the participation of local stakeholders and other agents in obtaining future scenarios as decision-making tools in territorial planning and environmental management.
The international dissemination of the results and conclusions thanks to the participation of researchers, research centres and interested institutions from countries such as Spain, France, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Brazil, Italy, the Netherlands and the USA.
