{mprestriction ids="1,2"}The Maritime Data Space (MDS) project was officially initiated with a kick-off meeting, hosted by Wilhelmsen Ship Management in Lysaker, Oslo.
Based on International Data Spaces (IDS) reference architecture, MDS will develop an open maritime data exchange and sharing ecosystem, with distributed data governance mechanisms to provide secure sharing and exchange of ship related data among trusted stakeholders on ship and shore.
This extendable architecture should support rapid development of new data analysis services while securing proper governance of the data. The system will be demonstrated on the DNV GL Veracity open industry data platform and ecosystem, as well as NAVTOR’s platform for integrated e-Navigation based on its NavBox technology.
The Maritime Data Space Project is co-funded by the Research Council of Norway under the MAROFF programme.{/mprestriction}
