Lot 1	VTOL RPAS for Emissions Monitoring with Long Endurance	The objective of lot 1 is to provide RPAS emissions monitoring services by targeting vessels in their transit through main European sea routes. RPAS contracted under this lot will be VTOL aircraft with enough range to be able to reach the area of interest (sea routes/shipping lanes) taking-off from land (take-off from vessels could be offered but not as a unique option).
