DGS Industry Platform

A federated digital twin ecosystem for greener maritime operations

Connecting data, models, knowledge, and decision-support services in a neutral environment — built for scalable adoption while preserving stakeholder autonomy.

Platform modules

01

Knowledge Hub

Structured operational, regulatory & contextual intelligence.

02

Open Model Library

Maritime models for performance, emissions & routing.

03

DT4GS Framework

Semantic & technical foundations for digital twins.

04

NaviQore

Monitoring, simulation & decision-support interface.

Platform Purpose

From fragmented tools to a shared maritime digital ecosystem

The platform is designed to help maritime stakeholders discover, combine, and apply digital twin assets while preserving organisational autonomy, data sovereignty, and practical routes to deployment.

Connect

Bring vessel, port, operational, model, and knowledge resources into a common digital green shipping environment.

Orchestrate

Support workflows where models, data spaces, dashboards, and decision services work together across use cases.

Scale

Lower adoption barriers by turning research outputs and pilots into reusable components for wider industry uptake.

Federated Architecture Principles

Modular adoption with interoperability at the core

The DGS Industry Platform is structured around complementary components that can evolve independently while remaining connected through shared semantics, data exchange principles, and deployment foundations for scalable maritime digital twins.

01

Knowledge Hub

A central intelligence layer that transforms operational, regulatory, and contextual data into structured knowledge.

Architecture

A platform organised around trusted federation

The DGS Industry Platform is not a single closed system. It acts as an integration layer where stakeholders can connect digital twin assets, model services, operational data, and knowledge resources while keeping control of their own systems.

Layer 01 Stakeholder systems

Ships, fleets, ports, providers, research assets, and regulatory knowledge sources.

Layer 02 Federated data and model exchange

Interoperability patterns for controlled discovery, access, integration, and reuse.

Layer 03 Digital twin and AI services

Models, simulations, optimisation services, analytics, dashboards, and decision support.

Layer 04 Operational and policy outcomes

Emissions reduction, route decisions, performance insights, compliance evidence, and adoption guidance.

Core Services

What the platform enables

  • Discovery of validated digital twin models, methods, and reusable platform assets.
  • Integration of operational data with analytics, optimisation, and decision-support workflows.
  • Access to knowledge resources, reports, use cases, and adoption guidance.
  • Connections between platform services such as the Open Model Library, Knowledge Hub, and NaviQore.

Relationship to EU Projects

Continuity beyond individual project lifecycles

The platform federates outcomes from complementary European research and innovation projects, including DT4GS, FOREMAST, and WARRaNT. This ensures that validated models, tools, and methodologies remain available for long-term industry impact.

Platform Collaboration
