Meantime, HUNAGI was invited by GISIG to take part in the WELL-GIS Project in the Copernicus Programme, to assist in the formulation of the GI2000 Programme of the European Commission orchestrated by the DG XIII E-2 and to demonstrate the GI-related progress in Hungary at the Joint European GI Conferences held in the Hague, Barcelona and Vienna.
