The maritime sector faces challenges in data exchange due to fragmented systems, inconsistent formats, and diverse regulations. These complexities inflate costs, delay decisions, and hinder efficiency. However, the push for standardised digital solutions and regulatory alignment offers a path to streamlined compliance, smarter decision-making, and improved operations.
EMSWe-MIG 1.0: A response to the challenges
As a response to these challenges, the European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA) has taken a pioneering step and has now published the first maritime data set aligning the reporting obligations of all European Member States in the one and only EMSWe-MIG 1.0.
In October 2024 EMSA has published the first European Maritime Safety Reporting Implementation Guide (EMSWe) 1.0. . This uniform framework simplifies ship-to-shore reporting and promotes standardisation and harmonisation for efficient implementation. It paves the way for real trade facilitation, transparency, efficiency and sustainability in maritime transport.
