The objective of the project is to integrate and support traditional monitoring approaches (Water Framework Directive - WFD and, in Switzerland, Water Protection Ordinance - WPO) using advanced DNA sequencing techniques. T
he innovative approach will use next-generation sequencing (NGS) to analyze environmental DNA in water bodies, enabling rapid identification of species from fish to bacteria. Smart technologies will be used which will guarantee automation in the process, management and storage of data.
The project is operative from April 2018 until April 2021.
