Summary
Digitalisation and increased levels of autonomy in transport are expected to take leaps forward in the coming years. This development can help in creating safer, more efficient, sustainable, and reliable service chains to meet the requirements for a better quality of life and global prosperity.
The development of maritime autonomy makes remote operations and remote pilotage a possibility in a near future. Due to this development, the navigational decision-making will become physically distributed.
Ensuring the safety of navigation and operations is of paramount importance. Today safe navigation is a team effort consisting of the master and crew, pilots, vessel traffic services (VTS), and aids to navigation. Controlling the ship movement in all situations is essential and requires timely decisions as the ships in movement cannot be stopped very fast.
The mission of the Sea4Value / Fairway (S4VF) program is to provide blueprints towards digitalisation, service innovation and information flows in maritime transport. Its longer term mission
is in preparing for advanced autonomous operations and navigation. A key step is to ensure safe, sustainable and efficient channel for ships to enter and leave harbours. S4VF program improves the safe navigation for existing vessels and lays foundation for autonomous vessels of the future.
S4VF is a transformative program that aims for wide societal influence by providing concrete research- based recommendations on regulation, business, data usage & sharing and for standardization. In particular, the program targets on following demonstrations and experiments, which are important milestones on the journey towards smart and autonomous maritime transport system.
• Smart fairway navigation experiments
• ePilotage working environment (on shore) and remote pilotage experiments
Implementing the program is a central steps towards a faster, more efficient, increasingly sustainable smarter supply chain.
