1. 1 Production of reliable and comparable statistical information in EMSA: from raw data to maritime knowledge Béatrice Comby Project Officer - Production and development of maritime statistics International Maritime Statistics Forum Gdansk, 28-30 April 2008

2. 2 Raw data Statistical information Maritime knowledge

3. 3 1 - Raw data

4. 4 Scope –Data collected by EMSA belong to Member States (“Top up”) Safe Sea Net => index server Port State Control => Paris MoU Secretariat –Data purchased with restricted use Non commercial Internal –Other data processed with limited mandate Equasis Pilot projects with Member States (HNS)

5. 5 Type 1 – Information systems managed by EMSA Vessel Traffic Monitoring (Safe Sea Net) Port State Control (THETIS) LRIT EU Data Center Accident investigation Satellite monitoring (Clean Sea Net) AIS (STIRES) 2 - Data purchased from commercial providers Mainly: Ship particulars Ship movements

6. 6 Use Example: calculation of risk profile SIRENAC (current) THETIS (after 2010) At the time of the LAST INSPECTION At the time of the CALL

7. 7 Scenario 1 history factor = 0

8. 8 + 16 + 1 X 2,8 compared to scenario1 Scenario 2 Scenario 1 + Flag change

9. 9 X 3,5 compared to scenario1 + 3 + 1 + 2 Scenario 3 Scenario 2 + Class change

10. 10 Scenario 4 Scenario 3 + History change + 20 X 5,8 compared to scenario 1

11. 11 2 – Statistical information

12. 12 Methodology Avoid double counting Flag: the sum of each Member State total does not equals the EU total Late reporting = possible overlaps (ex conflict MMSI/flag) Ensure correct definitions apply Ex: build year = 4 different definitions according to regulations Audit quality Document methodology

13. 13 Products Yearly statistics EQUASIS Publication Report to COM (RoRo Ferry surveys, banned ships, etc..) Monthly statistics EU waters EU fleet Key indicators Ad-hoc Impact studies Preparation of visits to Member States Technical reports

20. 20 Main areas –Coding –Vessels –Movements –Cargo

21. 21 Coding Example: flag –EU fleet? – –Difference between flag and registers. Ex: GB possible registers : Isle of Man Bermuda Gibraltar Cayman Islands Falkland Islands British Virgin Islands St Helena Antigua Turks and Caicos Islands Jersey Guernsey Montserrat

22. 22 Vessels Example: MMSI / Flag SafeSeaNet THETIS LRIT STIRES National administrations Other sources Checks / Validation rules

23. 23 Movements Example: UNLOCODES

24. 24

25. 25 Cargo Example: Pilot project on HNS transportation –Top up approach at the request of MS –Data collected by national administration –Risk assessment / anti pollution preparedness
