Data requirements linked to EU Environmental and Marine Directives

Problem addressed

Compliance with the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) and other European regulations requires reliable, standardised, and comparable data. Many public administrations and managers lack the technical capacity to generate or process this information.

What we do and how we do it

• We generate and adapt data to meet the indicators required by European directives.
• We ensure data quality, interoperability, and traceability in line with EU standards.
• We integrate high-resolution coastal observations with European products such as the Copernicus Marine Service and EMODnet.
• We support public administrations and agencies in planning and official reporting to the European Union.

Key benefits

• Compliance with European marine environmental protection regulations.
• Access to reliable, expert-validated data.
• Reduced administrative burden and costs associated with reporting.
• Guaranteed interoperability with European observation and modelling networks.
