Proceedings of the Maritime Big Data Workshop
(2019-01)
The NATO STO Centre for Maritime Research and Experimentation, as part of its mission to put forward
the technological maritime research, with the support of the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Programme
has organized on ...
Weather-routing system based on METOC navigation risk assessment
(CMRE, 2019/05)
This paper presents a novel weather-routing system based on a multi-criteria setup. The set of 3 conflicting criteria is: travel time, ship navigation added resistance (caused by wind and waves), and navigation risk/safety. ...
Performance assessment of vessel dynamic models for long-term prediction using heterogeneous data
(CMRE, 2019/06)
Ship traffic monitoring is a foundation for many maritime security domains, and monitoring system specifications underscore the necessity to track vessels beyond territorial waters. However, vessels in open seas are seldom ...
JANUS-based services for operationally relevant underwater applications
(CMRE, 2017/11)
This paper presents the design, test, and experimentation at sea of four JANUS-based services for operationally relevant underwater applications: 1) first contact and language switching; 2) transmission of automatic ...
Benefit assessment of glider adaptive sampling in the Ligurian Sea
(CMRE, 2014/01)
The benefits of piloting a glider during a 6-day period via an adaptive sampling procedure in a 80 × 60 km2 marine area are assessed under a fully operational framework. The glider trajectory was adapted to reduce the ocean ...
Doppler passive fathometry
(CMRE, 2019/05)
Passive fathometry is a technique whereby broadband ambient ocean noise received on an array of hydrophones is averaged and cross-correlated to produce a sub-bottom profile [Siderius, Harrison, and Porter (2006). J. Acoust. ...
A paradigm shift of interoperable submarine rescue operations: the usage of JANUS during the Dynamic Monarch 2017 exercise
(CMRE, 2019/05)
The NATO Centre for Maritime Research and Experimentation (CMRE) participated for the first time in the Dynamic Monarch submarine rescue exercise, bringing to the operational players a new interoperable digital underwater ...
Detecting anomalous deviations from standard maritime routes using the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process
(CMRE, 2019/05)
A novel anomaly detection procedure based on the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) mean-reverting stochastic process is presented. The considered anomaly is a vessel that deviates from a planned route, changing its nominal velocity ...
Boosting the talent of new generations of marine engineers through robotics competitions in realistic environments: the SAUC-E and euRathlon experience
(CMRE, 2019/06)
This article summarizes the experience of the NATO Science and Technology Organization (STO) Centre for Maritime Research and Experimentation (CMRE) in the organization of the Student Autonomous Underwater Vehicle ...
Multiple sensor Bayesian extended target tracking fusion approaches using random matrices
(CMRE, 2019/06)
The tracking of extended targets is attracting a growing literature thanks to the high resolution of several modern radar systems. A fully Bayesian solution has been proposed in the random matrix framework. In this paper, ...
