An advanced surveillance platform to improve the EURopean Multi Authority BordeR Security efficiency and cooperation (EURMARS)

海洋领域的安全风险和威胁日益复杂。在欧盟内部，非正常移民流动、人口贩运和走私以及其他非法活动（如毒品和武器贩运以及非法、未报告和不受管制的捕捞活动）显著增加，根据FRONTEX《2021年风险分析》报告，挑战变得更加严峻。《欧洲联盟海上安全战略》以及欧洲共同市场和欧洲安全与安全倡议等其他欧盟倡议强调，国家、区域和欧盟各级当局之间更密切的合作可以成为提高对局势的认识和业务效率的关键行动。特别是，人们越来越有兴趣评估多个当局在（特别是高空）传感和能力发展方面进行合作的可行性，以加强对陆地、空中和海洋边界的大面积监测。EURMARS的突破性愿景是扩大当局目前部署的共同风险评估做法，以开发，部署和评估安全的多任务监视平台，通过将高空平台技术，卫星图像，UXV和地面传感器聚集到一个新的联合监视能力中，提高对更广泛边界地区各种安全风险和威胁的感知能力。作为EURMARS框架的一部分，各种现有和未来的海上监视系统将被整合，以允许协作操作并向相关当局提供传感结果。该开放式架构将借鉴以往举措的经验教训，吸收利益相关者的知识及其在CISE和其他相关系统上的实践，利用最新的人工智能，风险评估和可视化创新，并进行广泛的技术和用户验收测试以及道德和法律的影响评估。

Security risks and threats in the maritime domain are becoming increasingly more complex day by day. Within the EU there have been significant increases in irregular migration flows and human trafficking and smuggling but also of other illegal activities, such as drugs and arms trafficking and illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing, and –according to the FRONTEX “Risk Analysis for 2021” report the challenge becomes even bigger. The European Union Maritime Security Strategy, and other EU initiatives such as EUROSUR and CISE, highlight that closer collaboration between authorities at national, regional and EU levels can constitute the key action to increase both situational awareness and operational efficiency. In particular, there is increased interest in assessing the viability of multi-authority cooperation in (especially high altitude) sensing and capability advancement for enhanced wide area surveillance of land, air and sea borders. EURMARS’s ground-breaking vision is to expand the common risk assessment practices currently deployed by authorities to enable the development, deployment and evaluation of a secure multitasking surveillance platform that improves sensing capabilities for a wide range of security risks and threats in wider border areas by clustering high altitude platforms technology, satellite imagery, UxVs and ground-based sensors into a novel joint surveillance capability. As part of the EURMARS framework, the various existing and future systems for maritime surveillance will be integrated, to allow for the collaborative operation and the provision of the sensing results to related authorities. The open architecture will build on the lessons learnt of previous initiatives, assimilate the knowledge of the stakeholders and their practice on CISE and other relevant systems, exploit the latest AI, risk assessment and visualization innovations, and undergo extensive technical and user acceptance tests and ethical and legal impact assessments.
