On 24 and 25 October 2022, the 3rd Meeting of the consortium of the European project NESTOR, in which JRCC participates as a partner, took place at JRCC premises.
The NESTOR project, which is part of Horizon 2020, involves a total of 21 partners from 13 European countries and aims to create a fully functional next-generation holistic border surveillance system for pre-frontier situational awareness, reaching both maritime and land borders operations of European Union.
The contribution of JRCC to the project, as end-user, is focused on the definition of the minimum requirements, as well as on the organisation of a Search and Rescue scenario exercise to test the system.
In addition, in the framework of this meeting, a site visit was carried out on 26 October 2022 by members of the project to the site where the Search and Rescue exercise will be held in early 2023.
