Primary Contact Points (PCPs) for Soil

At the EIONET meeting on Soil , held at JRC Ispra on 4-5 March 2009, meeting participants agreed on the need to clearly identify a lead institution at National level that would be in charge of networking with all the competent National institutions related to the various soil data needs as identified by DG ENV and EEA. This lead institution would also act as the Primary Contact Point (PCP) for all the future activities of ESDAC in relation to EIONET.

EIONET National Focal Points (NFP’s) were asked to indicate such a lead institution. Following is the list of indicated institutions and the persons to contact(Last update: 01/11/2010):
