About the requirement

From the notice

Type of action: PPPA Project Grants. Expected Outcome: A consolidated reference on private situational data relevant for submarine-cable security A structured description of the main categories of private situational data and actors relevant for submarine-cable security, including their sensitivity profile, typical usage, and the key legal, regulatory and commercial constraints affecting possible access by Regional Cable Hubs. Interoperability and data fusion pathways for multi-source, multi-basin use Clear conclusions on the main interoperability and data fusion challenges and feasible solutions (e.g. common data models or ontologies, interoperability layers, translation and fusion layers), including indications on which approaches are realistically applicable across multiple providers and sea basins, and how they can remain extensible to accommodate new data sources and actors over time. A proof-of-concept demonstration showing how selected private situational data can be accessed, integrated and processed within a Regional Cable Hub–type environment, together with a practical demonstration of the situational-awareness outcomes that such integration can produce. This includes evidence on the achievable levels of spatial precision, timeliness, coverage and reliability under pilot conditions, as well as identification of the constraints that limit performance. Partnership models and recommendations for EU follow-up A concise set of partnership models through which Regional Cable Hubs could obtain or use private situational data (e.g. service-based, data-sharing, or hybrid a…[E3]
