The 11th International Workshop on Marine Technology MARTECH will be held on June 6-7, 2024, at the University of the Balearic Islands in Palma de Mallorca, Spain. The primary goal of the event is to share information and perspectives on cutting-edge research in various fields of MARine TECHnology.
On June 6, during the special session on Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, Sensors, and Communications (16:00–17:30), Valeria Pizziol, R&D Project Manager at ETT, will present the paper titled “Advanced technological platforms for sea monitoring and forecasting: RAISE project”, a project dedicated to developing innovation ecosystems in the fields of AI and Robotics in Liguria.
On June 7, in the special session on the same topic (12:15–13:30), Valeria Pizziol will first present the paper “Enhancing social well-being and economic prosperity by reinforcing the EFFECTIVEness of protection and restoration management in Mediterranean MPAs”, a project aimed at improving scientific understanding and providing practical guidelines for the protection and restoration of Mediterranean Marine Protected Areas using an Ecosystem-Based Management (EBM) approach. She will then present the paper “Constructing an open library containing a curated and continuously growing digital catalogue of individual sound signatures from the marine underwater soundscape in shallow seas”, a project focused on creating and validating an open-access digital archive of sound signatures in shallow waters, with particular attention to sources of anthropogenic noise.
At the end of the two-day event, there will be an awards ceremony for the best papers.
ETT‘s strong presence at the event highlights the company’s commitment and ongoing activity in the discussed topics, emphasizing the fundamental role of advanced technologies in data collection and management, and the importance of implementing best practices for the conservation of marine ecosystems.
