14. 30. sep. Monitoring of oil spill Independent of darkness & clouds radar images (SAR) from satellites deliver information about extent of oil spills and oil seeps. The European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA) - responsible for the maritime safety in EU – use satellite data for tracking oil spill extent & identification of illegal oil spills. The oil industry uses satellite data to monitor the environment around oil platforms & to localise oil seeps for identifying potential new oil reserves.
