METROPOLIS : a thematic network in support of precautionary sciences and sustainable development policies
Abstract
The METROPOLIS network was created in July 2002, under the 5th Framework Programme, to respond to the need for an overall, cross-sectoral assessment of the state of the art of measurements and monitoring systems in the environmental field in Europe. The objectives of Metropolis include: - gathering information and knowledge about the problems/shortcomings that we face today in environmental monitoring ; - identifying the fields where research and further work are needed in order to improve the quality and comparability of environmental data across Europe.
