We are now looking for professional mariners (active or recently active Masters, Mates, officers and maritime pilots) to participate in a study about the new e-navigation Sea Traffic Management (STM) applications for use on the bridge.
Already signed up? Please check your inbox for recieved link to edit your application.
STM has developed and created a network of interconnected simulator centres in several EU countries – the European Maritime Simulator Network (EMSN). This network enables testing of Sea Traffic Management in complex traffic situations, port approaches, confined waters as well as other functions, like Search and Rescue, as a safer alternative to live testing.
During five simulation campaign weeks in 2017 and 2018 various STM services and tools are tested and evaluated in different scenarios. The first four sessions are focusing on scenarios in various conditions held in the South Western Baltic and English Channel/Southampton and the 5th session is on the use of STM services in Search and Rescue (SAR) scenarios in the Strait of Gibraltar. As a participant you have the option to choose both the center and the date(s) you wish to participate (please note that you can only participate one day even though you can apply for several dates). Reimbursement differ between the centres, for further information contact the center in question.
