30 years of Belgian North Sea aerial surveillance | Institute of Natural Sciences
Although the Belgian part of the North Sea only represents 0.5 % of the North Sea surface, it is situated in one of the busiest shipping lanes in the world and combines a large number of human activities on a limited space. All the more reason to keep close eye on the health of the marine environment and the compliance of the many actors with regulations, also from the air. In their just-published multiannual activity report, the aerial surveillance team of the Institute of Natural Sciences describes the various missions and results, trends and developments of the Belgian program for aerial surveillance over the North Sea over a period of 30 years, from its start in 1991 up to and including 2021. The numbers are downright impressive.

Is vliegen met een oldtimer wel veilig? "Situaties zoals de noodlanding in Deurne zijn zeer uitzonderlijk"  | VRT NWS: nieuws

All Models Club - mise à jour Juillet 2025



Forwarded message - From: Raphael Bolle 

Bonjour à tous,  

J'ai mis en ligne une petite mise à jour le weekend dernier. Celle-ci compte :

  • Un article généraliste sur l'usage de l'IA avec un cas d'usage. J'ai mis une version en néérlandais en ligne également. Si certains sont intéressés, on peut envisager de faire une série d'articles sur d'autres cas d'usages ou d'autres retours d'expérience.
  • Un plugin a été ajouté au site qui se matérialise par une petite image bleue en bas à gauche du site. Il s'agit d'un message pour nous mettre en conformité avec le RGPD
  • Activation d'un plugin d'optimisation des images qui transforme les images JPG en WEBP qui est optimisé pour le web.
  • Adaptation des galeries afin que l'image agrandie puisse être visualisée en cliquant dessus
  • Verrouillage des commentaires sur les articles aux seuls membres inscrits sur la plateforme. Peut-être peut-on assouplir cette règle ? 

Voilà qui est déjà pas mal. De mon côté, je termine mon Spit ce mois-ci et, s'il n'est pas trop moche ;-) , je prends quelques photos et j'écris un article sur le montage. Ce sera, sans doute, pour le mois d'août.
Dans la série des articles, on peut aussi faire l'une ou l'autre revue de boîte, ou encore un retour d'expérience sur du matériel, voire encore plein d'autres choses.

Je vous souhaite, à tous, de très bonnes vacances et, pour ceux qui seront présents, dimanche prochain :-)  

Raphael Bolle
