1 CAP Regional Impact Assessment - DYNAmic and SPATial dimension The HSMU approach in CAPRI-DYNASPAT (Homogeneous Spatial Mapping Units) Adrian Leip, Giulio Marchi Climate Change Unit / Joint Research Centre Markus Kempen University of Bonn CAPRI-DYNASPAT Final Meeting February 27 th,

2 Motivation and Objectives HSMU Approach Background CAPRI Interactions between classical goals of agricultural policy and environmental side-effects at aggregate regional level Effect of agricultural activities on the environment is differentiated by differences in soil type, land cover and climate Land cover maps based on satellite images (CORINE, PELCOM) usually do not differentiate crops Link to bio-physical models Bio-physical models require detailed land use information Complex processes linked to politically relevant scenarios Forecast environmental effects on small scale units (1x1 km) 2

3 HSMU Approach Rationale Establish a European wide land use map ( crop level) Detailed forecast of environmental impacts (of political programs) Homogeneous Spatial Mapping Units Assuming similar conditions for crop Ensuring higher precision on linking cultivation practices and environmental conditions Spatial ground resolution of 1km Extent: EU15 + EU10+3 3

4 Homogeneous Spatial Mapping Units Similar environmental conditions (leading to high or low emissions of Green-House Gases or other pollutants) Regions belonging to the same FSS NUTS 2/3 - Farm Structure Survey 2000, Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (administrative data) CORINE 2000 land cover/use class (land cover data) SMU - Soil Mapping Unit; European Soil Database V2.0 (soil data) Slope class; CCM DEM 250, 2004, Catchment Characterisation and Modelling (slope data) 4

22 CAPRI-Solagro (France) Solagro: crops diversity indicator (1-10) at farm level Application to CAPRI crop data Aggregation at commune level ( 37,000 polygons) Comparison between Solagro data and Solagrized CAPRI 22

23 Conclusions Output: 1km resolution land use map at EU28 level Extensive land use types list Validations are comforting For many applications: crops aggregation further reduces uncertainties The approach offers good opportunities for expansion 23
