Tourism

Thanks to its capacity to monitor the environment, Copernicus can support applications in the domain of tourism.

For instance, a better monitoring of jelly fish populations or detection of algal blooms can prevent potential negative impacts on activities linked to tourism.

More generally, Copernicus can support the implementation of coastal water quality monitoring services that can in turn help public authorities to enhance protection of bathing waters.
