INDYMO – Monitoring water quality
Visuals – Life under floating platforms
Insight into the aquatic environment.
The type of fish and aquatic organisms present and
bio-diversity, are indicators of the ecological state of
water bodies.
A fundamental new approach to urban development is needed for the challenges of the 21st century
Floating city expansions combined with food production can accommodate future urbanization without sacrificing land
At the same time this strategy provides global food security and reuses waste of conventional cities
Much research is still needed but, at the same time, also fast implementation
Floating cities construction is part of a wider societal transition in which governance is crucial
Conclusions
