HELLASNOMOSAT

The goal of the project “Legal issues derived from the use of monitoring and earth observation technologies to ensure environmental compliance in the Hellenic legal order- HELLASNOMOSAT” (MIS 5047355), is to examine the legal issues raised in greek legal system, when using remote sensing technologies to improve environmental compliance. Legal issues, such as conflict with privacy and personal data protection, property rights and the possibility of using them as judicial evidence are examined.

The main deliverables of the project are constituted of the following:

1. One article: Maria Maniadaki, Athanasios Papathanasopoulos, Lilian Mitrou, Efpraxia-Aithra Maria. 2021. Reconciling Remote Sensing Technologies with Personal Data and Privacy Protection in the European Union: Recent Developments in Greek Legislation and Application Perspectives in Environmental Law.  Laws 10 (2), 33, DOI: 10.3390/laws10020033
2. One conference presentation: Maria Maniadaki, Athanasios Papathanasopoulos, Lilian Mitrou, Efpraxia-Aithra Maria. 2021. Application of Remote Sensing Technologies in environmental monitoring: legal framework, limitations and potential in the European Union. Paper presented at EGU 2021, 19-30 April 2021 (virtually). 

The research is co-funded by Greece and the European Union (European Social Fund- ESF) through the Operational Programme “Human Resources Development, Education and Lifelong Learning 2014-2020”.
