CISE’s operationalization launch through A Long Endurance and Real live Test

ended

CISE-ALERT project intends to launch CISE as an operational tool to increase the interoperability and cooperation of the EU actors involved in maritime surveillance missions by reinforcing the sharing of information. It is built around two main ideas. 1- To test CISE in an operational environment, 2- To ensure there are sufficient data, services and participants actually using CISE when it is operational. CISE-ALERT Consortium includes a large sectorial representation: Customs, Navies, maritime safety, Coastguards Authorities, data providers, hydrographic offices. These members will gather around one major ambition: shifting CISE from the current transitional phase to a state where CISE is an operational network. In order to achieve these objectives, the main activities will be: - To perform a large exploration of the data available and required to be efficient, - To take advantage of some already identified services of interest to develop them within CISE, - To focus on specific uses cases, - To show case CISE as an added-value tool through a final demonstration event. Along with the services identified by the CISE community, CISE-ALERT will also implement new services deemed necessary for the daily use of CISE as an operational tool, which are: - Asset information sharing, - Operational assistance request, - Digital navigation warnings. Out of the pre-operational services mentioned, the intent is also to test all capabilities offered by CISE in case these technologies are available (such as video Streaming, chat or corporate networking) targeting as specific use-cases. Also, CISE-ALERT could seek the support and contribution from EU maritime agencies (FRONTEX, EFCA, EMSA) technically already connected to CISE, and try to drag new actors. CISE-ALERT will end-up with a showcase event, where the guests will have the opportunity to observe the use of CISE through pre-planned scenarios, paving the way for the deployment of CISE into operation in 2024.
