Recognized as major contributors to irreversible crop damage, quarantine and regulated non-quarantine pests (RNQPs) lead to substantial economic losses. The challenges posed by climate change, globalization, population growth, and intensified international trade further threaten ecosystems and biodiversity by reshaping the distribution of plant pests. Despite the imperative to minimize RNQP outbreaks and prevent the introduction of quarantine pests, the absence of monitoring and surveillance systems hampers the study of these pests. Additionally, it impedes the collection of data for Artificial Intelligence algorithms.<\/p><p><strong>The STELLA project positions itself to advance the current state-of-the-art in plant health early detection, territory surveillance, and phytosanitary measures, specifically focusing on RNQPs and quarantine diseases and pests.<\/strong><\/p><p>By leveraging cutting-edge digital technologies in agriculture across Europe and New Zealand, STELLA aims to develop a robust and accurate monitoring system, the STELLA Pest Surveillance System (PSS), supporting early detection, territory surveillance, and phytosanitary measures. This system, accessible via the STELLA PSS Platform, consists of three subsystems: <strong>early warning, pest detection, and pest response. <\/strong>These subsystems incorporate the latest developments in Artificial Intelligence, Spectral Imaging, Modelling, IoT, Data, Smart traps, and hardware to create accurate and robust solutions.

These traps will use different attractants (sound, color, pheromone), based on the different insects-vectors\u2019 specificities, to achieve maximum trapping efficiency.<\/li><li>In addition, Pessl Instruments will provide spore traps to monitor airborne fungal spores concentration to identify the onset of the fungal diseases and to monitor their progression over time. Spore traps will be analyzed using analytical molecular methods (PCR, ELISA) to determine the type and concentration of fungus.<\/li><li>Finally, gathering, extracting, and pre-processing all the IoT and trap (insect and spore) data collected is part of the responsibilities of Pessl Instruments. Both traps (insects and spores) will help the development of accurate crop pest models from task T2.3.<\/li><li>The collected data feeds into the STELLA database (task T2.5 and WP3) for further use in modeling and analysis.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3f0c235 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"3f0c235\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5539f74 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"5539f74\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2387ec9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2387ec9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Partners<\/h3>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2d3c86d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2d3c86d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul><li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/metos.global\/\"><strong>PESSL Instruments GmbH<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www2.aua.gr\/en\"><strong>GEOPONIKO PANEPISTIMION ATHINON (AUA)<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/li><li><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.unicatt.it\/\">UNIVERSITA CATTOLICA DEL SACRO CUORE (UCSC)<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/li><li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/ilvo.vlaanderen.be\/nl\/\">EIGEN VERMOGEN VAN HET INSTITUUT VOOR LANDBOUW- EN VISSERIJONDERZOEK (EV ILVO)<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/boku.ac.at\/en\/\">UNIVERSITAET FUER BODENKULTUR WIEN (BOKU)<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/li><li><strong>GREEN &amp;
