2. SMI2G Brokerage Event, January 23-24 | Brussels, Belgium Proposal Concept BES-1-2014 > The project will approach the system development and interoperability at different levels: single technology, integrated platform (HW, SW and communications), integrated system (including segments and control ground station) and connection with the responsible public entities for a timely deployment of SAR resources. The project aims to: > Assess end-user-driven requirements and develop a suitable architecture for the integrated system > Develop technological solutions (sensors, sensor data processing, platforms, systems) to extend surveillance coverage beyond current monitoring capabilities > Perform an extensive set of trials. Test will be performed on realistic SAR scenarios Proposed Work Package Breakdown Structure WP 1 – Project Management: WP 2 – Requirements and Scenarios: This work package will focus on development of system architecture which will be based on user requirements, concept of operations and SAR scenarios. WP 3 – Radar Sensors Development and System Integration WP 4 – Evaluation and Trials/System Validation: WP4 will perform the evaluation of the proposed solution against realistic Maritime SAR scenarios. WP 5 – Dissemination and Exploitation: WP 6 – Societal, Legal and Ethical Aspects.
