SafeClouds presented in the EU-US workshop

Last January, a team of European and American entities organised a workshop on transatlantic research with the support of the European Commission. The event was hosted by the FAA in their facilities at the William J. Hughes Technical Center in Atlantic City. Those mostly in attendance were US and European companies interested in how the different research threads could be boosted through international cooperation.

Among the subjects discussed during the three day event, data analytics was mentioned several times as a interesting area with applicability to different areas in industrial research. Particularly, safety data analytics was covered in three presentations. First, the FAA presented their +10-year old programme ASIAS, which collects data from more than 40 carriers and has been leading the developments in this field for more than a decade. Second, EASA presented the Data4Safety programme, recently launched and in a proof-of-concept stage. Lastly, Innaxis presented the research programme SafeClouds.eu, including the latest technological developments and how they could complement the existing initiatives by providing and exploring new research avenues.
