At the global level, GMES will provide new verification tools to contribute to the precise monitoring of th
e implementation of international protocols, such as the Kyoto protocol on climate change, as well as security and international aid agreements. At the other end of the spectrum, GMES will help local authorities to pinp
oint problems (e.g. shoreline erosion) and better react to catastrophic events (e.g. floods, mudslides, avalanches, forest fires). At EU level, beyond environment and security, GMES will provide new objective data
...[+++]to support of a broad range of Community policies - notably regional development, transport, agriculture, enlargement, development, and foreign policy.
Au niveau de l'UE, au-delà des questions d'environnement et de sécurité, GMES contribuera à une meilleure définition et mise en place d'une série de politiques communautaires - notamment développement régional, transport, agriculture, élargissement, aide au développement et politique extérieure.
