MONALISA 2.0 project has issued a newsletter which includes updates of the project’s final conference, focusing on newsworthy results but also looking at what is next – developments in the already started STM Validation Project, and how work with safer ships will continue.
In this newsletter:
The future starts now
It’s called the STM Validation Project and is the next step in e-navigation and a logical follow-up to MONALISA 2.0 where the Sea Traffic Management (STM) concept was defined. The concept will now be tested, implemented and validated by 300 ships and 13 ports in two test beds, the Mediterranean and the Nordics, supported by five onshore service centres. Perhaps the most important task is to demonstrate the business value of the services to all stakeholders
Keeping a Princess safe
Though MONALISA 2.0 was mainly focused on theorizing solutions for the maritime industry, a number of real-life applications have also come into effect. The cruise ship Ruby Princess has been equipped with an internal tracking system. It has now been up and running for nine months.
Taking maritime transport into the digital era
The MONALISA 2.0 final conference held in Gothenburg, Sweden on 10–11 November summed up and shared the final results of more than two years of work within the project. The conference was the culmination of efforts aimed at making maritime transport safer, efficient and more environmentally friendly.
Almost 300 people from more than 20 countries attended the event. During the two intense days they learned about the project achievements, listened to the perspectives of different maritime experts, took part in panel discussions and workshops, exchanged ideas and networked with each other.
The conference was also the debut of the STM Validation Project. This is the next step in e-navigation and a logical follow-up to MONALISA 2.0 where the Sea Traffic Management (STM) concept was defined. The
concept will now be tested, implemented and validated by 300 ships and 13 ports in two test beds, the Mediterranean and the Nordics, supported by five onshore service centres.
Perhaps the most important task is to demonstrate the business value of the services to all stakeholders.
