EO4SEM – EO FOR SHIP EMISSION MONITORING

GMVIS SKYSOFT S.A. (PT)

Summary

EO4SEM aims to advance towards the EO-driven monitoring of ship emissions, particularly GHGs such as CO2 and CH4 as well as air pollutants like NOx. The motivation comes from the need to improve our understanding of these emissions from ships and in view of new and future regulations within the European Union (EU) and at international level. EMSA supports the European Commission (EC) and the EU Member States with technical and technological means to guarantee a proper ship emission monitoring strategy as well as to verify that the regulations are properly applied and positively impacting at mid- and long-term the environment and life quality of the European citizens. The project will focus the attention on current (Sentinel-5P) and future (CHIME, CO2M) missions.
