Iliad develops interoperable, data-intensive, and cost-effective Digital Twins of the Ocean (DTOs).

What: Iliad provides DTOs to represent marine systems in virtual environments, accessible through a central marketplace and demonstrated through key innovative pilots.

How: The DTOs provide real-time, interactive access to integrated data, tools and information from marine monitoring platforms, services and models, allowing complex analysis, simulation and predictive management scenarios.

Why: The DTOs support planning and decision-making on conservation, environmental and socio-economic objectives for a range of stakeholders and end-user groups.
