HELM (Harmonised European Land Monitoring) is a network of authorities concerned with land monitoring across Europe. It will initiate a move to increase the maturity of European land monitoring along five sequential steps:

• Mutual interest in achieving reciprocal knowledge
• Shared visions and planning for the future
• Joint activities by taking on tasks collectively
• Alignment of national systems involving the mutual adaptation of data interpretation methods and of the timing of data gathering
• Lasting integration and combining data across all administrative levels.
