How EU projects are helping our job

I-STORMS and STREAM are two integrated projects.

These projects are inspired by a basin scale aproach.

To increase the accuracy and reliability of sea storm forecasts
is important to use the right scale, that is the adriatic-ionian
area. This is only possible through the transnational
cooperation.
The I-STORMS project

    I-STORMS is a project co financed            Common

The STREAM project
Strategic development of flood management

STREAM aims to increase the
management capacity to promptly react
to flood disasters in the Adriatic coastal
area by developing:

●
    Efficient risk monitoring tools and early
    warning procedures
●
    flood risk management plans
●
    flood forecasting system

Data sharing, flood cadastre, flood risk
maps, exchange of practices and capacity
building schemes for the emergency
                                                4th November 1966
Services

The project will also contribute to raise
awareness about the flood risks in the
areas involved and to people will learn
how to behave in case of flood hazards.
