The aim of the EO programme is to test and trial the use of satellite imagery and remote sensing techniques, in the design and implementation of the Rural Investment Schemes (RIS) and the Sustainable Farming Scheme (SFS), to assess the extent which the use of satellite imagery (specifically VHR/VHF) could be used effectively for:
- Control and Compliance
- Suitability and Risk Mapping
- Automated Change Alerts and the potential to generate payments or further action
