Earth Observation for Maritime Navigation (EONav)

Start date: May 1, 2016, End date: Apr 30, 2019,

EONav presents an entirely new concept of combining space-based remote sensing observations which are offered by Copernicus with local maritime ship observations to aid maritime sail planning for fuel, emission and fatigue optimization. High fuel costs, consequences of delays in ship passages, reduction of SO2/CO2/NOx and similar emissions and other constraints are now putting more pressure on the ...

Surveillance of MARiTime surroundings through lasER technology (SMARTER-2)

Start date: Sep 1, 2016, End date: Aug 31, 2018,

Contact and collision incidences are now the most increasing, most frequent and overall the most costly type of accidents in the maritime transport sector, representing 40% of yearly insurance claims and force 1 out of 10 ships to an unplanned dry dock every year costing on average €400,000 per incident. Semi and fully submerged objects are particularly causing havoc to shipping and offshore platf ...

Space-based maritime navigation (SPACENAV)

Start date: Sep 20, 2013, End date: Dec 1, 2016,

SpaceNav presents an entirely new concept of combining space-based remote sensing observations with local maritime ship observations to aid maritime sail planning for fuel, emission and fatigue optimization. High fuel costs, consequences of delays in ship passages, reduction of SO2/CO2/NOx and similar emissions and other constraints are now putting more pressure on the maritime industry. Thus util ...

(Multi-) Senor Offshore Safety system (SOS)

Start date: Jun 1, 2014, End date: May 31, 2016,

"Offshore activities including maritime transport faces the inherent risk of loss of humans at sea. This activity proposes to develop a multi-sensor network solution that has several means to detect, characterise, classify and track humans going overboard in an all environmental conditions. The solution will adapt several sensor technologies that all have the ability to support the solution under ...

Active & Passive Sensor NETwork (APS-NET)

Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2014,

The increased importance of maritime transport and operations leads to more congested sea lanes. Denser sea routes increase the probability of accidents respectively collisions. The major factors that lead to the accidents on water are human error (communication, level of crew’s experience, fatigue etc.), marine traffic environment, ship and platform (structural) condition, and incompleteness/lack ...

Ocean Surface Layer Observations (OSLO)

Start date: Oct 24, 2011, End date: Oct 23, 2013,

Offshore activities in general face numerous risks in terms of safety, security and navigation. Above surface layer objects and (to less extent) below surface objects can be observed (detected, characterised and tracked) with numerous sensor solutions (radar, sonar, etc.) on various platforms (satellites, ships, offshore energy platforms, etc.). However, objects in the surface layer (small boats, ...
