Marine robots are seen as game changers for marine science, deep-sea and polar exploration, environmental monitoring, oceanographic research , but also shipping. They offer the potential of exploring the oceans at depths currently out of reach, while remaining at sea for several months and continuously recording data and collecting samples. Their applications range from inspecting submerged structures and laying cables, to constantly transporting goods in a greener and safer way.

Join us for a summer of learning, innovation, and adventure. Dive into the future of maritime technology and set sail on a journey of discovery and professional growth. 1 – 6 September 2024, SmartMove Lab, Syros Island, Greece.

The work “A Digital Twin for Maritime Situational Awareness”, where members of our lab took part in, was presented in the 10th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Big Data Computing, Applications and Technologies (BDCAT2023) from December 4 to 7 in Taormina, Italy.
The poster demonstrated a framework for maritime situational awareness, capable of monitoring current vessel movement and predict future behavior though complex data-driven methods, at a global scale.

Workshop on Marine Technology. Disseminating research results and discussing open challenges.

Dimitris Zissis will be the keynote speaker at the 3rd IEEE Intl. Maritime Big Data Workshop (MBDW 2022) collocated with the 23rd IEEE Intl. Conference on Mobile Data Management (MDM 2022) June 6, 2022, Paphos, Cyprus. Talk Abstract: The analysis of trajectories created by moving objects (such as ships, cars and planes) exhibits unique challenges, while […]
