Maritime ANalyTics Intelligence System - MANTIS

mantis是一个专注于使用地理空间数据来解决英国水域航运和海上导航服务面临的新挑战的项目。这一挑战是由灯塔管理局（及其姊妹机构三一之家）提出的。三一之家在运输部的管辖下，为所有海员的安全、海上贸易的效率和整个不列颠群岛水域的海洋环境保护提供海上辅助导航服务。我们需要更好地理解，然后预测英国宣称的大幅提高海上风力发电能力的目标对航运的影响。该项目将通过对英国水域一段时间内船舶运动和位置的创新分析，并利用人工智能和机器学习技术来识别不断变化的运动模式，从而为拟议的未来风力发电场实施提供预测结果，从而实现这一目标。首席申请人Emu Analytics是一家年轻的英国微型中小企业，在创建创新的地理空间分析和可视化解决方案方面拥有丰富的经验，这些解决方案专为大、快速和实时数据而设计。它的解决方案目前在航空领域广泛使用，著名的用户包括IAG（英国航空公司），希思罗机场和民航局，其中使用大的地理空间飞机定位数据对英国领空内的飞机行为和模式进行分析。MANTIS将寻求适应、发展并将这种专业知识和能力从航空转移到海事，利用可比较的海事部门船舶位置数据，最终产生一个强大的商业级解决方案，可以被广泛的公共和私营部门组织使用。

Public descriptionMANTIS is a project focused on using geospatial data to address new and emerging challenges facing shipping and maritime navigational services within UK waters. The challenge is posed by the General Lighthouse Authority (and its sister organisation, Trinity House) who, under the jurisdiction of the Department for Transport, provide maritime aids to navigation services for the safety of all mariners, efficiency of maritime trade and protection of the marine environment throughout waters of the British Isles.The need is to better understand, and then predict, the impacts to shipping of the UK's stated aim to significantly increase off-shore wind farming capacity.This project will achieve this through the innovative analysis of ship movements and positions, throughout UK waters over periods of time, and utilising AI and machine learning technologies to identify evolving patterns of movement, leading to predictive outcomes for proposed future wind farm implementations.Lead applicant, Emu Analytics, is a young, UK-based micro-SME with extensive experience in creating innovative geospatial analytics and visualisation solutions designed for big, fast and real-time data.Its solutions are currently used extensively within the aviation sector, with notable users including IAG (British Airways), Heathrow and the Civil Aviation Authority, wherein analysis of aircraft behaviours and patterns within UK airspace are undertaken, using big geospatial aircraft positioning data.MANTIS will seek to adapt, evolve and transfer this expertise and capability from aviation to maritime, utilising the comparable maritime sector ship positional data, and ultimately producing a powerful, commercial grade solution that could be utilised by a broad range of public and private sector organisations.
