Pilot Projects • Urban Statistics A Environment + Agriculture above. The specific applications were based on this basic data set, e.g. the assessment of the impact on the environment of a planned high-speed train railroad in the Rhone valley, the dynamics of the urbanised areas at the 'Grand Estuaire Normand' in France or the harmonised delimitation of urban agglomerations in Europe on several test sites spread over Europe. 2.4 Operational activities Regarding operational work, CESD LU provides technical assistance to statistical services in the field of land use statistics, remote sensing and geographic information systems technologies. The expertise provided on a short term basis concerns the definition of projects as well as the follow-up and the evaluation of the processes. Currently a GIS project at the Central Administration for Statistics in Lebanon is supported in the framework of statistical co-operation. In Greece and in Malta, projects on the improvement of land use statistics using earth observation data will be launched in due course with technically supported by CESD LU. Concerning the implementation of projects / surveys on an operational basis, CESD Communautaire is founding member, together with the Statistical Service of the French Ministry of Agriculture (SCEES) and the Information Centre of the Finnish Ministry of Agriculture (TIKE), of Landsis g.e.i.e., an organisation that has the status of an European Economic Interest Grouping. The grouping created in 1998 constitutes an execution tool able to intervene efficiently in the fields of agriculture statistics, rural development, environment and regional planning within and outside the European Union. Its main objective is to contribute to statistical harmonisation through the execution of studies, statistical work and operational projects. To achieve this objective Landsis provides the adequate services and develops the necessary tools. It brings together national statistical entities or entities whose activities are related to the European Statistical Information System. Currently Landsis g.e.i.e. is implementing an operational land use statistical survey in Bulgaria. 3 OUTLOOK Regarding the future, the EU Commission together with other relevant institutions, e.g. the EEA, national statistical services, has plans for the collection of land cover / use data following the two possible approaches. A closer co-ordination of the different services will lead to higher efficiency in the exploitation of existing information systems and data sets. Regarding data collection, the EEA is planning to update the CORINE Land Cover database by
