About the AGRI-GIS project

Draft AGRI-GIS (Training Program for Enhancing the Management and Analysis of Geographical Information by Agriculture Technicians) improving the competence of agricultural technicians on the use of modern tools geographical information systems (GIS). . . Particular emphasis is placed on the use of geo-information technologies in the context of precision farming, sustainable management of resources and adaptation to climate change.

The project will develop:

  • Innovation training methodology for vocational training (VET),
  • teaching materials and case studies based on actual spatial data,
  • e-learning platform,
  • guide for trainers, supporting teachers and instructors in the transmission of GIS knowledge in agriculture.

International Partnership

The project is implemented by a consortium of six European institutions, combining academic, training and practical experience:

  • Universitat Politècnica de València (Spain) – Project coordinator,
  • Foundation for the Promotion of Agricultural Engineering (Spain),
  • The Polish Farm Advisory and Training Centre Natalia Truszkowska (Poland),
  • Česká zemědělská univerzita v Praze (Czech),
  • International Academy of Applied Sciences in Łomża (Poland),
  • Univerzitet u Novom Sadu (Serbia).

During the meeting in Spain, the partners discussed a detailed action plan for the coming months, principles of cooperation and strategies to disseminate the project results at local and international level. Participants stressed the importance of synergies between agricultural science and practice and the role of modern GIS technologies in shaping the future of the agricultural sector.

Draft AGRI-GIS will be implemented in years 2025–2027, and its results will contribute to strengthening the professional competences of agricultural technicians and to developing innovative training methods in Europe.
