  • Implement test sites to provide very high-resolution information for civil protection planning and prevention.
  • Assess sea level effects using multi-temporal scenarios of the inland extension of marine flooding and coastline position up to 2100, based on the best available high resolution Digital Terrain Models (DTM), known rates of land subsidence and local sea level rise estimates.
  • To transfer information to society, policy makers and stakeholders
