1 Satellite based inland and coastal water quality monitoring Harmonized transnational, long-term and near-real time space based solutions. Thomas Heege CEO EOMAP Germany Earth Observation & Mapping

2 Inland and coastal water monitoring Monitoring services Applications Water quality monitoring Oil- and gas industry Dredging Turbidity monitoring Offshore construction impact monitoring Water depth mapping Water ways Pipeline routing Sea floor monitoring Biodiversity baseline

3 Outline Space based monitoring of water quality and bathymetry 1. Use cases 2. Technology background 3. Geo-spatial infrastructure 4. Benefits

4 1. Introduction Satellite based inland and coastal water quality monitoring Relevant questions where EO solutions contribute to clients issues Solving issues of economical and social impact Impact of industry, agriculture, and people on water quality Topics: Water way and offshore construction, dams, EO tools: Environmental baseline, change and impact monitoring

5 Dredge plume monitoring e.g. for Woodside Energy, Australia: Cost savings for Woodside Energy: AUD

6 Damns: Quantification of the impact Example Mekong: transnational river system Requirement on harmonized long-term monitoring of International river commissions governmental authorities, insurers
