An EnhaNceD Common InfoRmatiOn Sharing EnvironMent for BordEr CommanD, Control & CoordinAtion Systems Project Objectives

An EnhaNceD Common InfoRmatiOn Sharing EnvironMent for BordEr CommanD, Control & CoordinAtion Systems O1. Demonstrate innovative solutions validated and qualified in the real, operational environment of civilian missions, defined in detail according to specifications set by the practitioners. O2. Extend the Common Information Sharing Environment (CISE) concept for Land Border Operations. O3. Strengthen the cross sector and cross border collaboration between authorities operating in the Land and Maritime environments (Coast Guards, Police Border Guards, Navies, Customs) in order to utilize resources towards the same goal, leading to cost efficient usage of existing resources. O4. Demonstrate and validate advanced, CISE compliant Command & Control Systems and kick-start the future demand for CISE information services. O5. Support the practitioners along the complete lifecycle of border situations, from the observation of elements in the environment up to detection of anomalies and aids to planning by creating and validating improved Situational Awareness. O6. Complement with actions undertaken in the Preparatory Action on Defence Research under topic PADR-US-01-2017: Technological demonstrator for enhanced situational awareness in a naval environment. O7. Enforce compliance with European societal values, fundamental rights and applicable legislation, including in the area of free movement of persons, privacy and protection of personal data.

An EnhaNceD Common InfoRmatiOn Sharing EnvironMent for BordEr CommanD, Control & CoordinAtion Systems ANDROMEDA Command and Control Layer

An EnhaNceD Common InfoRmatiOn Sharing EnvironMent for BordEr CommanD, Control & CoordinAtion Systems I. Socrates Operational Center (GMV): One of the Socrates suite tools that is currently part of the Advanced Services deployed in EUCISE2020. II. ENGAGE C3i BME (STWS): One of the C2 Systems demonstrated at the PERSEUS project and the basis of various large scale deployments (Incident Logging System of the International Maritime Surveillance Bureau of MMAIP, National Command System of the Hellenic Fire Brigade etc.)

An EnhaNceD Common InfoRmatiOn Sharing EnvironMent for BordEr CommanD, Control & CoordinAtion Systems III. GeoC2 (INW): The basis for a series of national and international large-scale projects in both military and civilian clients (Portuguese Navy, Portuguese Directorate General for Maritime Policy, EMSA) The ANDROMEDA C2s:  will be totally integrated in the enhanced and extended CISE network with capability of discovering and consuming all the services, and acting as providers of CISE services.  will be integrated with the Data Fusion, Analytics and Decision Support services that will enable the realization of the capabilities to Collect, Fuse, Analyse, Disseminate and Decide/Act.

An EnhaNceD Common InfoRmatiOn Sharing EnvironMent for BordEr CommanD, Control & CoordinAtion Systems  ESSG Real Time Maritime Analytics (CODIN): Maritime surveillance solution with Real Time User and Entity Behavior Analytics functionalities using Machine Learning and Predictive Algorithms.  TRITON Analytics Engine (STWS): Vessel Abnormal Behavior Detection Engine that identifies and analyzes motion patterns of vessels from AIS, radar and fused tracks.  Socrates DF Services (GMV): Converts large amount of received data into useful information and performs a Behavior Analysis.  GeoC2 Real Time Analytics (INW): A mixed heuristics / statistic analytics engine that continuously monitors a sensor stream, allowing for correlation of events and alert generation.

An EnhaNceD Common InfoRmatiOn Sharing EnvironMent for BordEr CommanD, Control & CoordinAtion Systems  GeoC2 Predictive Analytics (INW): Correlate and forecast geospatial events and their recurrence, generating domain neutral predictions for occurrence and location of events of interest.  EXUS Analytics Framework (EXUS): A data fusion module which takes measurements from different sensors (e.g. data sources, radars, legacy systems, AIS) and fuse them for more accurate results and produce intelligence.  U2AM (ICCS): Two ICCS UAV systems (one fixed wing and one octocopter) for Land Border Surveillance to identify and track suspicious vehicles/objects, equipped with day/night vision sensors and/or spectral sensors. The ANDROMEDA DF & SA:  will leverage the experience of the partners on data fusion and data analytics techniques to support operational and situational awareness of border authorities and disseminate the results and best practices to further enhance awareness between EU countries.  will advance the current SotA in data fusion focusing on: (a) Hybrid fusion approaches, (b) Probabilistic fusion, (c) Deep Neural Networks.
