Nowadays, environmental protection and farming depend on up to date and precise information:

• Studies of environmental friendliness
• Mapping of biotope types
• Surveys of residual pollution
• Precision farming (Optimisation by linking crop maps and aerial image data)
• Applications for acreage contributions and their control
• Geographically precise border and acreage determination
• Design of continuous information systems from farms to the federal administration with unified acreage reference
