OceanEye: Strengthening Europe’s ocean observation innovation and industrial base
OceanEye is an EU initiative to boost ocean observation, enhance our ability to understand and manage the marine environment and maritime activities and strengthen Europe’s related innovation and industrial base.
The ocean covers 70% of the earth’s surface, yet only 5% of it has been explored and mapped. Ocean observation is essential infrastructure, not an optional capability.
We must sustain the ocean that sustains us. The ocean is of strategic importance, underpinning our security, prosperity and resilience. The ocean is the biggest carbon sink, and therefore our ally in the fight against global warming and it generates 50% of the oxygen we need.
