One of the outcomes of the EC-FP7 project “Future Farm” was showing the need ofINTEGRATION, something that PROGIS has been doing for 15 years. Within the whole sectoragriculture–forestry-environment-risk management there is an enormous need for integrationthat is not available yet, because of on side the existing admin-sector-structures plus on theother side diverse public and/or private interests with opposite directions and in many cases thenot streamlined interest of ALL involved parties. On the other hand we have the nature that isfully integrated and should be managed by us! Nothing happens without being related tosomething else within the nature. We have to be more aware of this and have also to understandthat ICT will be the driver of integration as data and based on it these information is necessaryand urgently needed for public and for private structures. We can do it separately, doing thingsin parallel and multiple times with multiple costs and reduced results. The other option is tocooperate on an integrative model!
