The overall goal of the TRACE project was to build a remote sensing-based, fully automated system to detect and track large pieces of marine litter, as well as accumulations of smaller pieces of litter. This information was used to obtain precise and reliable data on floating litter, regarding its quantity, position, accumulation zones, material properties, floating depth, and sources.

The project was funded through the Discovery element of ESA’s Basic Activities. It was selected through an Open Space Innovation Platform (OSIP) call for ideas on remote sensing of plastic marine litter.
