Business trip report, Crete, Koliada

In the framework of AQUAEXCEL3.0 technician transnational mobility exchange program, I undertook training activities at Hellenic Centre for Marine Research (HCMR) facilities (Heraklion, Crete), from November 24^th to December 1^st, 2024. I had a close look to Behavior and nutrition lab, Pre-growing, Intensive Hatchery, Mesocosm Hatchery recirculating aquaculture systems. It was shown cameras and sensors placement. I visited SOUDA Cage Farm near Chania city.   I actively engaged in sensors installation and maintenance, data transfer and storage in the sea cages monitoring conditions. For the data processing and design of imaging devices it is very useful to know the conditions of sensors placement and operation on the monitoring site. The gained knowledge will be used in the implementation of the faculty projects for welfare monitoring analysis.
