The European Forest Institute and the Joint Research Centre of the 
European Commission are sponsoring an International Workshop on 
"Designing a System of Nomenclature for European Forest Mapping" 
13-15 June 1994, European Forest Institute, Joensuu, Finland. The 
purpose is to define and design an appropriate nomenclature system 
for a pan-European georeferenced forest information system and will 
provide a forum to discuss the isssues of new informatoin needs, 
exsiting information, and strategies for data supply, existing 
defintions, technical requirements for the facilities, etc. firstly 
from the point of view of their respective countries, and secondly on 
a European-scale.  Remote sensing, combined with other data is a 
potential source of informaton. However a pre-requisite is to 
identify clearly the data layers needed at the European level.
