EURISY Workshop ‘Efficient management of coastal regions and cities: implementation and use of space application-based services – Tallinn, 17-18 September 2007 17-09-2007 Introduction Space application-based services are particularly well-suited tools for local
and regional authorities to address these specific challenges. Be they based on
earth observation, positioning navigation and timing or telecommunications,
satellite applications offer services free of ground infrastructure and capable
of providing real-time local information within a global context, perfectly fit
for purpose in maritime environments.
Description
The Tallinn workshop will bring together professionals from the public
administrations of coastal regions and cities and from the space technology
service sectors. The two-day programme will allow them to share good practices
in the management of issues specific to coastal regions by using space
application-based services, to evaluate specific needs and difficulties linked
to the implementation of such services, and to identify specific future service
developments. Participants will be presented with, and will consider their
action within, the larger scope of the EU common maritime policy.
The workshop will help shape future collaboration between users from coastal
public administrations and the value added industry. In addition, it will
contribute to the development of satellite-based services, by providing feedback
to the relevant European institutions.
