The event will focus on topics such as marine biodiversity mapping, automated seabed image analysis, marine litter detection, ecosystem health assessment, data visualization, and AI-driven environmental monitoring solutions. Participants will be encouraged to propose practical and scalable solutions addressing the environmental and socio-economic priorities of Greece and the wider Black Sea region, while exchanging knowledge and best practices with experts from across the project consortium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Greek Regional Hackathon will also serve as a preparatory platform for the Final EfxINNOs Hackathon, which will be hosted in Varna, Bulgaria. The event will support the development and refinement of innovative concepts and prototypes that may be further showcased during the Final Hackathon, where the most promising teams and solutions from all participating countries will come together. The Final Hackathon will provide a unique opportunity to strengthen cross-border collaboration, foster innovation, and promote advanced digital solutions that contribute to sustainable marine governance, ecosystem protection, and Blue Growth across the Black Sea Basin.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-class--is-open=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;id&quot;: &quot;accordion-item-2&quot;, &quot;openByDefault&quot;: false }\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initAccordionItems\" data-wp-on-window--hashchange=\"callbacks.hashChange\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-item is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-item-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading has-icon has-icon-right\"><button aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-item-2-panel\" data-wp-bind--aria-expanded=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.toggle\" id=\"accordion-item-2\" type=\"button\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle\"><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-title\">Venue<\/span><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">+<\/span><\/button><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div aria-labelledby=\"accordion-item-2\" data-wp-bind--hidden=\"state.isHidden\" data-wp-on--beforematch=\"actions.handleBeforeMatch\" id=\"accordion-item-2-panel\" role=\"region\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-panel is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-panel-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-class--is-open=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;id&quot;: &quot;accordion-item-3&quot;, &quot;openByDefault&quot;: false }\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initAccordionItems\" data-wp-on-window--hashchange=\"callbacks.hashChange\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-item is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-item-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading has-icon has-icon-right\"><button aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-item-3-panel\" data-wp-bind--aria-expanded=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.toggle\" id=\"accordion-item-3\" type=\"button\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle\"><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-title\">Date<\/span><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">+<\/span><\/button><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div aria-labelledby=\"accordion-item-3\" data-wp-bind--hidden=\"state.isHidden\" data-wp-on--beforematch=\"actions.handleBeforeMatch\" id=\"accordion-item-3-panel\" role=\"region\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-panel is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-panel-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-class--is-open=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;id&quot;: &quot;accordion-item-4&quot;, &quot;openByDefault&quot;: false }\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initAccordionItems\" data-wp-on-window--hashchange=\"callbacks.hashChange\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-item is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-item-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading has-icon has-icon-right\"><button aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-item-4-panel\" data-wp-bind--aria-expanded=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.toggle\" id=\"accordion-item-4\" type=\"button\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle\"><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-title\">Agenda<\/span><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">+<\/span><\/button><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div aria-labelledby=\"accordion-item-4\" data-wp-bind--hidden=\"state.isHidden\" data-wp-on--beforematch=\"actions.handleBeforeMatch\" id=\"accordion-item-4-panel\" role=\"region\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-panel is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-panel-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th><strong>Time<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Session<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Purpose<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>09:00-09:30<\/strong><\/td><td>Registration and welcome coffee<\/td><td>Participants arrive, collect badges and meet organisers and mentors.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>09:30-10:00<\/strong><\/td><td>Opening ceremony<\/td><td>Host welcome, EfxINNOs context, explanation of the national-to-regional journey.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>10:00-10:35<\/strong><\/td><td>EfxINNOs technology briefing<\/td><td>Clear explanation of microAUVs, ROVs, buoys, sensors, sonar, images, videos and AI\/ML potential.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>10:35-11:20<\/strong><\/td><td>Five sector lightning talks<\/td><td>Short talks by port, shipyard, tourism, fisheries and aquaculture stakeholders.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>11:20-11:45<\/strong><\/td><td>Challenge and rules briefing<\/td><td>Expected outputs, judging criteria, code of conduct, available resources and timeline.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>11:45-12:15<\/strong><\/td><td>Team reveal and icebreaker<\/td><td>Teams are formed;

They are also essential economic infrastructures. A monitoring system for ports should help operators and authorities detect environmental pressure early, document improvements and plan greener operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Priority parameters<\/strong><\/td><td>The most relevant parameters are turbidity, dissolved oxygen, hydrocarbons, pH, salinity, currents, underwater noise, sediment quality, marine litter, AIS-based vessel intensity and seabed habitat condition near port areas.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Monitoring architecture<\/strong><\/td><td>A credible port concept may combine fixed buoys in port approaches or harbour basins, periodic microAUV\/ROV seabed surveys, satellite or UAV context for plumes and surface patterns, AIS pressure layers and a dashboard for port authorities and environmental agencies.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Decision outputs<\/strong><\/td><td>The decision outputs may include dredging windows, spill-risk alerts, basin flushing interpretation, marine litter hotspot maps, underwater noise risk maps and environmental performance reports.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2 Shipyards and marine engineering<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shipyards and repair areas may create risks linked to antifouling paints, metals, suspended solids, cleaning operations, maintenance residues and waste leakage.

Tourism can also create pressure through litter, anchoring, diving, boating, coastal construction and seasonal wastewater loads.
