| Abstract |
This multiannual activity report describes the various missions and results, trends and developments of the Belgian program for aerial surveillance over the North Sea over a period of 30 years, from its start in 1991 up to and including 2021. The report describes how aerial surveillance over sea evolved from the surveillance of marine pollution in the early years to a broader environmental and maritime surveillance above sea, following the extension of the Belgian jurisdiction at sea and the creation of the Belgian Coast Guard structure. The report describes the usefulness and added value of aerial surveillance to combat marine pollution, protect the marine environment, sustainably manage the Belgian marine areas, ensure maritime enforcement and support various other Coast Guard functions. |
