(CROatian Land Information System)
2nd LIFE CROLIS Visibility event will take place on December 10th, 2025 in the premises of the National and University Library in Zagreb.
The LIFE CROLIS project deals with the development of a harmonized data model for land monitoring in the Republic of Croatia. The establishment of the Croatian Land Information System will enable the linking and processing of data on land cover and land use from various sources and their use for the purposes of sustainable economic, spatial and overall development of the Republic of Croatia.
The CROLIS model will be designed by integrating existing information systems and data on land use (LU) and land cover (LC) with publicly available services and long-term data from the Sentinel satellite of the EU’s Copernicus Programme, with the aim of identifying, monitoring and providing a historical overview of the state of and changes in land use and land cover.
Duration of the project
Total value
EU co-financing
To develop and set up the first multi-scale and multi-purpose land monitoring system in Croatia.
To apply CROLIS data for LULUCF reporting and accounting purposes in line with the requirements of international (UNFCCC, KP, PA) and EU legislation – the second demonstrative character of the CROLIS project.
To enable and ensure permanent CROLIS implementation by national authorities, decision makers, experts, NGOs and other stakeholders.
To provide a robust basis for planning and implementation of GHG mitigation actions in the land use sector.
The project is implemented through five groups of project actions.
Preparatory actions include those which are necessary for establishment of the project, hiring of the project team, procurement of equipment and setting up of the right framework for the successful implementation of this very demanding project.
Implementation actions represent the central part of the LIFE CROLIS project.
Monitoring and evaluation actions, using key performance indicators (KPIs), are important for monitoring project progress, managing risks and achieving the expected results and intended objectives.
Communication and dissemination of project results are important elements for receiving multiple benefits from the project, by applying the knowledge and experience gained in this project to other projects.
Project management actions are related to project administration, managing project finances and ensuring the long-term sustainability of the established CROLIS through the AfterLIFE plan.

On June 9th, 2025, a workshop of the LIFE CROLIS project was held at the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Green Transition, where an analysis of EU regulatory requirements related to the use of spatial data in the field of environmental and climate change monitoring was presented. The analysis was conducted by the project partner institution EKONERG d.o.o., and the workshop was intended for representatives of state administration bodies and other institutions involved in collecting, processing, and submitting spatial data for reporting to EU institutions in the areas of environment, nature, and climate change.
