The i-waveNet project and the integrated sea wave measurements in the Mediterranean sea

i-waveNET project is deploying measurement networks of the sea state in the Mediterranean. Several marine monitoring technologies will be integrated. In particular, HF radar, wave-buoys, seismographs, and tide gauges will be integrated with numerical models establishing a new integrated monitoring system. All the information provided will be analyzed with the aim of setting a Decision System Support (DSS). The DSS will support stakeholder activities to mitigate the coastal risks linked to extreme events, by providing useful information such as marine bulletins and GIS thematic maps.
