The document describes the ENVISION project which aims to develop tools for monitoring agricultural practices using earth observation. It received funding from the European Union Horizon 2020 program. The project uses a coproduction approach involving stakeholders from different sectors to develop solutions iteratively. This includes identifying needs, generating ideas, prototyping tools, and testing them with feedback. The goal is to ensure the tools effectively address key challenges in a way that is sustainable beyond the project's lifetime.
