Objectives
The objectives of the workshop are:
To present and promote discussion on the state-of-the-art (detection, identification, quantification and tracking) in remote sensing of marine litter and debris;
To encourage and promote the exchange of technical knowledge and ideas covering a broad range of technologies and techniques for remote sensing of marine litter and debris;
To assess the potential contribution of these technologies and techniques in contributing effectively to the monitoring of the marine litter and debris issue;
To identify novel techniques and technologies for future applications;
To stimulate the discussion about the most relevant next steps and directions to take in this research field;
