Overview

Background & policy context:

The supply of information services to traffic flows can help achieve

better levels of service, higher traffic control efficiency and increased

security in the maritime environment.

Objectives:

The objective of VASME was the design and development of a voice-operated VHF on-demand information system for ships and vessels. The underlying goal was to provide real-time access to a set of value added services (e.g. administrative, commercial, and technical information - navigation support).

The major purpose of the system was to increase the exchange of information between vessels and traffic control towers. The system was to offer information services to vessels and obtain valuable information from them (e.g. identification, origin, destination and cargo type).
