Fieldwork, fieldwork, fieldwork
This summer three fieldwork campaigns were already carried out! Our consortium has been busy sampling, mapping and going on fieldwork campaigns for the validation of Copernicus EU Sentinel-2 and -3 data. We invite you to check our post on the fieldwork carried out in Spain, France and Italy.
Also, want to hear something funny? We lost a sensor during a sampling session. Fortunately, the Italian Police helped us find it. Thanks again for the great help!

The whole consortium met for a project meeting at the Toralla Marine Science Station (ECIMAT) from the University of Vigo, where we got to visit the local mussel industry.
