Projects

I was involved at national, European and international levels.

EDIDP USSPs

USSPs will develop a highly autonomous, energy efficient unmanned platform prototype, based on miniaturized oil platform technologies and with a wide range of aerial, surface and submarine sensors. It can be deployed in any geographical area, including deep water, and in adverse environmental conditions, so it will be very versatile in operation. The goal of the initiative is to integrate the necessary systems and assets through innovative solutions to enhance maritime surveillance capabilities, reduce resource utilization and mission costs, and provide persistent and ongoing maritime situational awareness across all scopes.
The EU is contributing 19.5 million Euros to the project, which will cover study, design, system prototyping and testing over 42 months. A total of 15 European companies participate in USSPs, coming from Bulgaria, Cyprus, Spain, France, Greece, Ireland and the Netherlands, coordinated by the Greek ETME.

EDIDP DECISMAR

The objective of the DECISMAR project is to develop a decision support toolbox (DSTx), implemented as a cyber-secured and future-proofed integrated IT environment. The DSTx will provide a dynamic and interactive approach for conducting feasibility studies which aim to support the upgrade of maritime surveillance under the scope of both current and future defined High-Level Operational Requirements (HLORs) of the PESCO Project Upgrade of Maritime Surveillance.
The EU is contributing 7.5 million Euros to the project (out of a total cost of 7.8 million Euros), which will cover study, design, system prototyping and testing over 42 months. Twelve companies from seven countries are participating : Bulgaria, Cyprus, France, Greece, Ireland, Italy and Spain.
