摘要

The paper discusses the digital infrastructures needed for establishing Sea Traffic Management (STM) and its communication and functionalities requirements. STM emerged as a central goal of the MONALISA project and has since been further developed in the ongoing MONALISA 2.0 project. The three key objectives of STM are to increase shipping industry efficiency, improve safety, and reduce environmental impact. MONALISA 2.0 takes a holistic approach to the maritime domain by developing a means for the sharing of information in order to distribute, elaborate, and process common data within the whole transport chain. Through increased digital connectivity and information systems (IS), STM will be further advanced by the development of new tools enabling more efficient planning, booking, monitoring of sea traffic, including both cargo and passenger transport. It is crucial that these shared information systems are developed in a common manner. Experiences from the EU-project SESAR, within the air domain, are a guide to finding the safest and most cost effective solutions for the maritime domain. As a carrier of information, a unique voyage id will provide the linchpin for efficient cross-sectorial modality and the real time sharing of maritime and other relevant information.
