Seascape Belgium BVBA

Seascape Belgium specialises in the coordination/management of multidisciplinary marine science projects in support of policy/industry, and the provision of high-level advice to various stakeholders, including regulatory bodies, policymakers, industry and NGOs. Our expertise includes developing solutions for issues related to ocean governance, marine pollution, coordination of ocean observing and marine monitoring efforts, marine research infrastructures, management of marine data and information as well as facilitating Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) processes at the national, sea-basin and pan-European level. Seascape Belgium is managing the Secretariat of EMODnet, a network of 120 organisations working together to observe the sea, and to make the marine data collected freely available and interoperable. Since September 2017, the EMODnet Secretariat has taken over the management of the European Atlas of the Seas (www.european-atlas-of-the-seas.eu), the official digital mapping tool of the European Commission’s DG MARE dedicated to ocean literacy, and powered by EMODNet's data.
