| Tiivistelmä: | Based on a group of 26 European ports was interviewed to understand their requirements for environmental information and to establish how widespread the use of Earth Observation (EO) data was amongst them. Aspects covered by the research included port profile characterisation, environmental management activities, environmental needs and current monitoring practices. The study reflected the diversity amongst European ports and their environmental performances. It is found that: 1) general cargo was the most popular commodity handled. 2) the main environmental parameters that ports required to be monitored were marine related issues, water quality, meteorological parameters, turbidity and sediment processes. 3) the principal driver for monitoring was maintaining key port operations, followed by legislation, and local responsibilities. 4) half of them used computer modelling. |
