The GHG-KIT flagship project (Austrian Space Application Program, ASAP 18) aims to develop a prototype Earth Observation (EO)-integrated system for greenhouse gas (GHG) monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV).
The project supports Austria’s national reporting capabilities and ensures compliance with European and international regulatory frameworks, including the Paris Agreement, the EU Green Deal, and the Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF) regulation.
Using a modular tool-kit design, it creates a centralized platform featuring two key prototypes:
(i) LULUCF Inventory Reporter (bottom-up)
(ii) CO2 and CH4 Emissions Verification Element (top-down)
This collaboration between Austrian industry-science teams and international experts is a best-practice example, with potential for export and scaling to pan-European levels, while preparing the ground for the integration of upcoming Copernicus satellite missions (e.g., CO2M, BIOMASS).
The event will include two distinct focus areas. On the first day (February 26, 2025), we will concentrate on atmospheric modelling. The second day (February 27, 2025) will be dedicated to exploring the latest advances and state-of-the-art applications of EO data for LULUCF.

More details, including the agenda, can be found on the registration website. Registration closes on January 15th, so please register early to help us plan the event!
We gladly invite you to present your own work by means of a poster.
Posters can cover various GHG related topics including:
- GHG Emission Monitoring
- Atmospheric modelling
- LULUCF
- IT Processing Infrastructure for GHG Reporting
Please indicate your poster topic in the registration form.
