Promotion of interoperability between industry and competent authorities in the European Maritime Single Window (EMSW) environment under the CISE Process

The first objective of the project was to assist Member States (MS) in improving their National Maritime Single Window (NMSW) solutions and the interfaces with SafeSeaNet (SSN) in accordance with the requirements of Directives 2010/65/EU and 2002/59/EC, in order to achieve better data consistency, improve re-use of data and harmonise exchanges between Member States and EMSA systems.

The second objective of the project was initially to enhance the functionalities of the European Maritime Single Window (EMSW) demonstrator, developed under a previous 2012 project funded by the Integrated Maritime Policy transitional financial instrument, in order to enable interoperability with other EU systems for the transmission of digital data between ship and shore. That second objective was revised through a grant amendment to perform specific interoperability activities contributing to the development of an EMSW environment.
