EU TEN-T MonaLisa Activities in the Baltic Sea

The wider benefit European Union Trans European Network - Transport (TEN-T) Motorways of the Sea (MoS) project MonaLisa (2010 – 2013) aims at contributing to the promotion of continuous improvement and the development of efficient, safe and environ-mentally sound maritime transport in the Baltic Sea. This is accomplished by the implemen-tation of a series of measures which are also in line with the EU's Baltic Sea Region Strategy. This article concentrates on Activity 3 dealing with hydrographic re-surveys on shipping routes. Some future plans are also described.
