The EfficienSea2 project, which aims to implement innovative and smart solutions to increase efficient, safe and sustainable traffic at sea, has finished a full-scale simulation of a wide variety of e-Navigation solutions.
The European project Efficiensea2 has joined forces with Royal Arctic Line to complete the first-ever test of how space weather in the Arctic region influences the full range of a vessel’s communication channels.
A new communications system using the VHF radio channels in order to secure data exchange at sea has been tested by Cobham SATCOM in the EU-funded project EfficienSea2. The system will increase the range of inexpensive, land-based, data connectivity at sea, but will also be able to connect through satellites.
The team behind the Maritime Cloud have included a prototype for an endorsement tool in its latest update. When in use, it will allow international organisations, national authorities and regular users to endorse certain services for specific use.
A standardised guideline potentially covering all technical e-Navigation services has been agreed in an international committee under IALA. The guideline can stand alone, but it is also compatible with the Maritime Cloud.
The EU project EfficienSea2 is testing the first ever system using a newly proposed standard for digitalising Navigational Warnings. When properly assessed, the new standard could be a global reality within a year and make mapping of warnings easier.
At the ‘e-Navigation Underway International 2017’ conference, the prospects and benefits of the Maritime Cloud were presented by South Korean Partners and EfficienSea2.
Professionals interested in the latest developments in the EfficenSea2 project will have a good chance to become informed at a the conference e-Navigation Underway International 2017.
At the mid-term Conference ‘Getting Connected to the Future’, the variety of solutions being developed by EfficienSea2 were demonstrated to participants from the maritime world.
