Operator-Centered Enhancement of Awareness in Navigation

The OCEAN Project (Operator-Centred Enhancement of Awareness in Navigation) augments navigator’s capabilities to improve safety, reduce incidents and mitigate whale strikes.
co funded by the European Union

OCEAN: Human-Centred Innovation

Around 3,000 maritime incidents occur every year in the European maritime fleet.
28% of these accidents are categorised as severe or very severe accidents.

The OCEAN project is focused on enhancing operator awareness in navigation, to reduce the frequency of severe accidents like collision and grounding, to preserve the life of marine mammals, and to mitigate the risk presented by floating obstacles.
