Technologies for maritime surveillance and border security Dr Rodoula Makri Institute of Communications & Computer Systems – National Technical University of Athens (Microwaves & Fiber Optics Lab) Role: partner - WP leader or S/T provider Proposal activity: SEC-19-BES-2016: Data fusion for maritime security applications SEC-20-BES-2016: Border Security: autonomous systems and control systems (both topics) Disclaimer: with the submission of this presentation the consent is given by its author for the organisers to distribute the presentation.

Addressing BES topics - ideas  Maritime / Sea Border and Land Border Security are of major importance both for the Hellenic Homeland Security and the European one.  Greece has the longest coastline (17,000 km) of any other EU/Med country  along with the archipelagic Aegean and Ionian Seas (10,000 islands)  A major part of illegal immigration is localized on the eastern Aegean sea, covering a wide area very near to Asia Minor. The situation is further complicated through the Greek land borders where illegal immigrants and smugglers take advantage of the special terrain characteristics.  The idea is to exploit autonomous & control systems such as radar applications for small moving targets along with UAVs and in combination / fusion with small “green” telecom systems, mobile platforms and satellite imagery for maritime border surveillance and search & rescue applications.
