The subject of WP4 is to establish a platform for the integration of sustainability assessment tools. The platform will utilize existing software applications and services, as well as key components already available with the project partners. It will provide shipyards and ship operators with better decision-making support for sustainable maritime transport.
The Task 4.3. Dashboard and Applications development, configuration and integration will effectively be executed based on data analytics followed by the derivation of actions for improvements to establish manageable PDCA procedures.
The activities within the Task 4.3 are:
- Integrate PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) procedures, streamlining the entire process
- Leverage an existing, configurable dashboard framework to ensure the Dashboard is perfectly tailored to the requirements of the system
- Adapt various pre-existing applications to seamlessly work with the platform, leveraging the functionality of the Dashboard
Work has continued on the following topics:
- Design of Shipyard Modeller (on-going) with the prototype implementation for modelling shipyard layout, buildings and facilities
- Design and implementation of Materials Catalogue realizing:
→ the integration of revised material meta data provided by ISQ into the prototype
→ the connection with the data service
- Dashboard development has started implementing:
→ planned vs. actual energy consumptions and emissions view (see screenshot below);
→ views specifying various facilities (burning machines etc.)

Finally, this Task will result in the dashboard for controlling and visualizing data provided by integrated tools and stored by the platform’s services.
WP4 will be carried out in close exchange with WP2 and WP3 to determine and validate data and functional requirements. It will transfer results to WP5 for demonstration case preparations and real-world validation to demonstrate the viability of the approach.
