Satellite oil spill detection and monitoring in the optical range

Timely detection and continuously updated information are fundamental in reducing oil spill environmental impact. In particular meteorological satellite, thanks to an high temporal resolution and to an easy data delivery, can be profitably used for a near real time sea monitoring.
