ClassNK launches Internet of Ships platform at Sea Asia
ClassNK (B2 – T01e) chose Sea Asia 2019 to announce the launch of its global data utilization platform IoS-OP (Internet of Ships – Open Platform), by its wholly owned subsidiary Ship Data Center Co Ltd (ShipDC).
With many shipowners, managers and service providers keen to access the power of big data the IoS-OP is a platform for data distribution and utilization under common rules.
The IoS-OP aims to create what ShipDC characterises as a “new maritime cluster for the digital age”. The IoS-OP will establish a cooperative domain where users will collect and safely store data at ShipDC and the data will be distributed under common rules agreed by the stakeholders.
