+## Green Space Monitoring in line with the EU Nature Restoration Regulation
+
+The EU Nature Restoration Regulation (NRR) places strong emphasis on restoring and maintaining healthy ecosystems across Europe, including urban green spaces that provide essential environmental and social benefits. To effectively monitor progress toward these targets, consistent and reliable baseline information is crucial. The CLC Backbone data products from the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service serve as such a harmonized reference layers for land cover. In particular, this dataset is used to identify green spaces supporting Member States and stakeholders to assess landscape changes, measure improvements, and support evidence based planning in line with NRR requirements.

+
+## Products
+
+In view of the Green Space Monitoring related to the EU Nature Restoration Regulation OHB-DS can provide 
+- Geospatial data products at 10m spatial resolution (e.g. geoTiffs) as well as map layers to identify green spaces and their dynamics for any area of interest (e.g. the administrative boundary of Vienna).
+- Quantify the area of green spaces in square kilometers for any area of interest (e.g. the administrative boundary of Vienna or on district-level) and their dynamics with output in common structured data fromats (e.g. JSON or CSV).
+
+In general, the products can be delivered in all common geospatial data formats and interfaces supporting integration into external systems (as the EOX platform or proprietary solutions). As in intermediate layer access to these products can be provided by the existing interface https://vegetation.urbanview.ohb-ds.de/. Please contact ingo.schoolmann@ohb-ds.de in case access, adapations or customization of the products is of interest.
