GIS Opportunities in Horizon 2020 Calls 2015 List of calls and topics directly related to GIS This document is a collection of the next Horizon 2020 calls planned for 2015 and directly related to GIS in different topics such as water, agriculture, earth observation, business innovation, mobility or security. With almost 20 years of experience, SIGTE (www.sigte.udg.edu) is a centre specialized in Geographic Information Systems (GIS). From its origins, the international vocation has been present and now we would like to highlight GIS as the way or support to achieve the research and innovation challenges of Horizon 2020.
