The project “Earth Observation for Sustainable Development-Urban” (EO4SD-Urban) was initiated in May 2016 and is supported by the European Space Agency (ESA).

The main objectives are to improve understanding of EO applications for urban development with the Multi-Lateral Development Banks and developing countries, and to mainstream EO applications in an operational manner into development programmes.

Phase 1 was completed successfully by end of 2017.

Phase 2 now continues with new Cities and Stakeholders.
