The European Aquaculture Technology & Innovation Platform (EATIP) and Mercator Ocean International, organize in September 24 – 25 in Athens, Greece, an event entitled:

“Copernicus Marine Service Workshop & Training for the Aquaculture Sector”

 

 

The objectives are to :

– Allow the aquaculture community to share issues they are facing regarding the management of aquaculture farms.
– Show how the Copernicus Marine Service might contribute to tackle current and future challenges.

Copernicus is a data monitoring service, based on both satellite and in situ observations.  All marine issues are gathered under the Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service (CMEMS). CMEMS may provide a suitable framework for the development of better models for aquaculture siting and licensing, and opportunities for collaboration with EATiP are being investigated.

Also, the FAO BlueBridge initiative may be of use to the aquaculture sector.  It is developing services to support the analysis of socio-economic performance in aquaculture, and supports capacity building through converting operation data into knowledge to improve companies’ efficiency, sustainability and profitability.

Finally, the “Support Aquaculture and Fisheries Industry” (SAFI) project, is about exploiting Earth Observation resources to support the industries in coastal regions.  A webGIS tool was developed based on registrations from satellites, in order to identify optimal site locations for fish farms.
