Objective The concept of the ARGOMARINE proposal is the monitoring of the marine traffic due to carriers and commercial ships through environmental-sensitive sea areas. This monitoring will be realized by means of sophisticated electronic, geopositioning, and telematic tools connected through a high speed network along with data transmission through suitable data links. Data from different sources will be collected in an independent and remote fashion and sent to a main acquisition and elaboration central unit. . Motivation and scope of the Argomarine project is the safe detection, notification and interventions on vessels in emergency situation and the protection of sea and insular environment, endangered by heavy and continuous activities, mainly due to intensive ship traffic, generating a consistent pollution risk.The envisaged goal is connected to the necessity of precise and punctual pollution control in areas and shores which are, for instance, of particular naturalistic value, and/or are exposed to risk of accidental or even intentional contamination due to their vicinity to industrial or highly densely populated settlements, or crossed by a heavy ship traffic. All the data and the information obtained will be merged and elaborated in a Marine Information System (MIS), i.e. an information system where remote sensing data, field experiment results and estimates from simulation models will be integrated, and tools for data storage and retrieval, data manipulation and analysis, as well as for presentation, will available through a common interface Fields of science engineering and technologyenvironmental engineeringremote sensingnatural sciencesearth and related environmental sciencesenvironmental sciencespollution Keywords AUV Oil spill monitoring airborne and shipborne sensors electronic nose geopositioning mathematical modelling satellite image processing sea traffic monitoring thermal sensors Programme(s) FP7-TRANSPORT - Specific Programme "Cooperation": Transport (including Aeronautics) Topic(s) SST.2008.1.2.1. - Preventive and emergency interventions to protect marine, coastal and land environments Call for proposal FP7-SST-2008-RTD-1 See other projects for this call Funding Scheme CP-FP - Small or medium-scale focused research project Coordinator ENTE PARCO NAZIONALE ARCIPELAGO TOSCANO EU contribution € 332 617,05 Address VIA GUERRAZZI 1 57037 PORTOFERRAIO Italy See on map Activity type Public bodies (excluding Research Organisations and Secondary or Higher Education Establishments) Administrative Contact Michele Cocco (Dr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data Participants (8) Sort alphabetically Sort by EU Contribution Expand all Collapse all ETHNICON METSOVION POLYTECHNION Greece EU contribution € 552 764,40 Address HEROON POLYTECHNIOU 9 ZOGRAPHOU CAMPUS 157 80 ATHINA See on map Region Αττική Aττική Κεντρικός Τομέας Αθηνών Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Georgia Mertzelou (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data CONSIGLIO NAZIONALE DELLE RICERCHE Italy EU contribution € 989 430,75 Address PIAZZALE ALDO MORO 7 00185 Roma See on map Region Centro (IT) Lazio Roma Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Claudio Montani (Dr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data STIFTELSEN NANSEN SENTER FOR MILJOOG FJERNMALING Norway EU contribution € 294 714,00 Address JAHNEBAKKEN 3 5007 Bergen See on map Region Norge Vestlandet Vestland Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Stein Sandven (Prof.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data UNIVERSIDADE DO ALGARVE Portugal EU contribution € 343 390,00 Address CAMPUS DE PENHA 8005 139 Faro See on map Region Continente Algarve Algarve Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Flávio Augusto Bastos Da Cruz Martins (Prof.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data SCENSIVE TECHNOLOGIES LTD Participation ended United Kingdom EU contribution No data Address Ripley Drive,Normanton Business Park WF6 1QT NORMANTON See on map Activity type Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Administrative Contact Viv Hallam (Dr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Total cost No data Management Agency of Zakynthos National Marine Park Greece EU contribution € 54 215,00 Address El.
