Development of tools derived from Copernicus products for monitoring bathing water and shellfish farming and interaction with stakeholders

Natural resources in marine-coastal areas are often exploited to support human activities. To optimize the use of resources and manage them in a sustainable manner, careful monitoring of the parameters of the marine environment is necessary. This FPCUP action has as its object the development of integrated monitoring products to support bathing and shellfish farming activities which can be negatively influenced by anthropic factors, such as spills into the sea with bacterial contamination of the environment (e.g. discharges from treatment plants urban waste water, collection of run-off water on agricultural or pasture land) and consequent risks for human health and the environment.
