Summary of the action:
The marine environment is continuously and increasingly threatened by pollution derived from maritime accidents that frequently causes spills of dangerous substances. A great amount of work has been devoted to endow the EU-Member States with common protocols, action plans and operational tools regarding either oil or HNS spill. So far, however, it is not available a unified platform that covers the Oil and HNS spills. This is the main gap that Be Ready project aims to fill implementing an Environmental Decision Support System (EDSS), easily exportable to different geographical contexts, which models the most common sources of pollutions.
