The IALA Cloud Concept being developed. No part of the content of this page has been endorsed by IALA, and it should therefore only be interpreted as fantasies of the imagination of the author(s).

IALA Cloud Mission & Vision

Mission: to enable safe and secure global sharing of maritime information while creating value for participants.

Vision: to connect all relevant maritime information sources with their relevant consumers and value adding service providers.

Services

  1. All members are Service Providers as well as Service Consumers
  2. IALA Cloud Services may include all services within the e-Navigation Service portfolio.
  3. A Service Broker publishes all available services to all members
Example Services
Application Area Services
Near Real Time Streaming
  1. Near-real time AIS Stream from a given geographical region
  2. AIS Watchdog Services. Notifying member if a vessel moves in or out of a given geographic region.
  3. Dynamic Vessel Risk Indexes based on a given AIS data collection
Historical AIS Analysis
  1. A collection of Historical AIS data from a given geographical region and time period
  2. Passage line statistics
  3. AIS Density Plot for a given geographical region and time period based on a given AIS data collection
  4. A collection of Near Miss Incidents in a given region based on a given AIS data collection
  5. A collection of Incidents of strangely behaving vessels in a given geographical region and time period
  6. Sailed distance of a Vessel in a given time period based on a given AIS data collection
  7. Estimated TOA for i given vessel based on a fancy algorithm
  8. Estimated CO2, NOX and SOX emissions for a given vessel in a given time period
e-Navigation Services
  1. Navigational Warnings from a given geographical region
  2. Notices to Mariners from a given source
  3. METOC forecast for a given geographical point and point in time
  4. No-Go areas in a given geographical region and time period for a given vessel
  5. Vessel Tracks using the IALA VTS Data Exchange Format
Data Fusion
  1. Fusing AIS data with other data sets such as radar data.
Search and Rescue
  1. Last known position of a given vessel
  2. What vessels are within a certain radius of a given position where a vessel may be in distress
  3. Tracking of a drifting vessel which may be in distress
  4. Suggested SAR search pattern as route suggestions in a standard format

When seeking for a service, members consult the Service Brokers for available services. During this search, members can apply the following filters:

Service Filters
Type Parameter Resolution
Spatial Geographic cells 1 degree lat/long
Temporal Time period 1 minute
Identity Data Source Unique
Identity Vessel Identity Unique

Having applied the filter, the member is presented with services available, and makes his choice.

Security and Integrity

  1. Each member (data owner) determines the destiny of his data .e. who can consume his services
  2. A Security Broker ensures that each member can only access services he/she is entitled to
  3. All established connections are logged and can be audited.

Facts about IALA Cloud

The IALA Cloud:

  1. connects information sources to agreed information consumers safely and securely
  2. creates value by providing access to global maritime data and associated value adding services
  3. includes appropriate information security measures
  4. operates across political boundaries
  5. is capable of sharing a wide range of data types
  6. is a gateway between its members and value added services
  7. is based on a highly decentralized technical framework
  8. resides in the Amazon Cloud
  9. is based on Open Source software
  10. is capable of including thousands of participating nodes
  11. is glued together by only a handful of centralized components
  12. will be paid for by the participants
  13. costs are covered through contributions from all participants

Members

  1. IALA national members
  2. IALA industrial members (providing added value services
  3. All e-Navigation stakeholders?
