Abstract

The purpose of the ECAMARIS Operational Concept Template for Autonomous & Automated Maritime Systems is to provide a basis for the development safe and effective autonomous and automated systems. The template is designed to provide a usable framework to support early and comprehensive identification and collation of key information and assumptions about the system and its operational context. This information provides a basis of initial concept development, design, analysis and assurance activities over the design lifecycle of the system. The template aids the identification and critical review of system features and capabilities to enable the development of systems that deliver their objectives and are effectively integrated into their human, technical, organisational, environmental and regulatory context. The Operational Concept template was developed primarily for use with Maritime Autonomous Ship Systems (MASS). It is based on cross-industry guidance with some specific adaptations for the maritime domain. The template may be useful in the development of autonomous and automated systems for other maritime infrastructure and can also be adapted for use in other industries. MS Word version of the template is available in Aaltodoc. The ECAMARIS Operational Concept Template for Autonomous and Automated Maritime Systems is designed to support early and comprehensive collation of key information about an autonomous /automated system and its operational context. This information provides a basis of initial concept development, design, analysis and assurance activities over the design lifecycle of the system.
