What is the SenSPa Tool?
The SenSPa tool is intended to be a platform that will assist sustainable pasture management, decision making, planning of activities and in the long-term pastures’ restoration by providing useful, up to date information for sustainable pasture management. The information will be available to local and national public administrations, public and private stakeholders and end-users, whereas the tool will be tested in a use case in Azerbaijan.
The SenSPa tool will be developed and launched by December 2019. Its development will follow three main phases: (i) assess the data and information needs of interested stakeholders to inform the SenSPa
tool design; (ii) conduct a use case in Azerbaijan to test and validate the tool; and (iii) investigate solutions to ensure the long-term technical and funding viability of the tool.
Interested stakeholders are encouraged to actively participate in the SenSPa tool development.
