MONALISA 2.0 Simulation Pilot Run
MONALISA project is searching for respondents to attend bridge simulator tests during 8th – 9th of October
These simulations will include groundbraking new functionality in ship ECDIS software and test the
concept of route exchange ship – ship and ship – shore as well as other new functionality such as ETA
window and flow management. These simulations will follow up the previus simulations held during
week 50 last year and week 16 this year, participants from those occasions are more than welcome to
participate once more.
MONALISA 2.0 is Motorways of the Sea project which aims at giving a
concrete contribution to a continuous improvement and development of
efficient, safe and environmentally friendly maritime transport in the
European Union (EU) by implementing concrete pilot actions and studies
that will foster deployment of new maritime services and processes.
Several simulator centers around Europe have been and are
interconnected in what is called an European Maritime Simulator Network
(EMSN) which gives an unique possibility in creating scenarios with a
large number of participating own ships.
The simulator runs will be part of the Formal Safety Assessment (FSA)
where the risks associated with implementing the MONALISA concept are
identified, analyzed and evaluated in comparative studies from both a
“metric perspective” i.e. reduction of probability of close quarter situations,
and from a Human Factors perspective i.e. the usability of the system from
the operators point of view.
The simulator exercise will take place in the Kattegat in an area between
North of Anholt to north of the Great Belt Bridge as indicated next.
Area of simulations
The planned pilot simulation runs will include MONALISA services such as route exchange and ETA window to
enable the analysis of the concept and to verify that the technology is working. For the Pilot run only a limited
amount of bridges will be participating, i.e. only the bridges at Chalmers and SMA, in total 5 bridges.
Who are we looking for? - Test persons
The simulator bridges are to be manned by two deck officers forming a navigator/co-navigator team. One of the
officers is required to have experience in a senior position on board and preferably have a Master Mariner CoC.
The other officer may be a junior officer with a 3rd Mate’s license or a senior student of the Master Mariner
program. Language prerequisite is English. The simulations consists of 2 days, your participation is needed only
on one of the days, so please state which day you will participate and if you have the possibility please state if
you can participate other days if the choosen day is filled.
