ANERIS, an ambitious European project for the automatic monitoring of marine life.
The initiative, led by the ICM-CSIC (Institute of Marine Sciences), aims to deal with the rapid loss of ocean biodiversity, through the development of innovative tools and technologies, for monitoring, research and marine life management.
At the same time, he proposes to implement a new concept of Operational Marine Biology (OMB). A biodiversity information system that allows routine long-term measurements of ocean and coastal ecosystems and their rapid interpretation and dissemination to all relevant stakeholders.
The role of citizen science.
Citizen science will play a key role in the project. In this way, MINKA, one of the marine citizen observatories of the ICM-CSIC, will be used as a technological framework for the development of new participatory tools.
