Monitoring of Lake Bolmen to support the water treatment processes
The project goal is to investigate, on a more comprehensive level, how satellite based information can be used to measure and monitor the water quality status of Lake Bolmen and to evaluate how changes in the water quality, observed from the satellite data, can be used directly to support and enhance adaptive operation at Ringsjöverket.

High-Res Satellite Data for Mapping Benthic Habitats in Turbid Waters
The general goal is to investigate the possibilities to develop a method for classification and mapping of hard- and soft bottoms and different vegetation types in shallow coastal areas. The purpose is to derive information that will facilitate the environmental work and decision making for a number of authorities.

High-Res Satellite Data for Mapping Depth and Maritime Objects
The general purpose of this project is to evaluate the possibility of using high resolution satellite data to collect information about a number of nautical objects and, to investigate to what extent the information collection process could be automated, to develop a strategy to include the satellite data in the existing nautical database at SMA and to test the developed strategy in a pilot production.
