OMI en el Día Marítimo Mundial 2022, bajo el lema: Nuevas tecnologías para un transporte marítimo más ecológico"

La intención es promover la innovación y la aplicación de nuevas tecnologías al transporte marítimo.

 La Organización Marítima Internacional (OMI) en el marco del Día Marítimo Mundial 2022, que se conmemora hoy, 29 de septiembre, destacó el papel de las tecnologías emergentes para apoyar una transición ecológica del sector marítimo hacia un futuro sostenible. En ese sentido, las celebraciones se centrarán en el lema "Nuevas tecnologías para un transporte marítimo más ecológico", proporcionando una plataforma para mostrar la innovación marítima inclusiva; la investigación y el desarrollo; y la demostración y el despliegue de nuevas tecnologías.

Por otro lado, el evento paralelo del Día Marítimo Mundial (WMDPE) se celebrará en Durban, Sudáfrica, del 12 al 14 de octubre de 2022.

En España la DGMM ha logrado descafeinar por completo esta celebración.

Rescue and work-boat davits 

OS35. Gibraltar. Una situación repetida muchas veces.

Un barco semihundido y soltando productos contaminantes a la mar. Unos políticos con más osadía que conocimiento, pontificando y haciendo alardes de lo que ignoran. Un grupo de pretenciosos dispuesto a orquestar protestas y dispensar ocurrencias, porque lo suyo es figurar.

El sector marítimo, como otros muchos, esta inmerso en un

These tools are not intended to be a one-time snapshot or expected to trigger over­ night change, but rather to provide a shared baseline for the industry and

If we talk about major trends in the use of small satellites, then we have to talk about asset tracking. Geolocation has long been a part of our lives. When we make any kind of purchase on the Internet, we are used to knowing the status and location of our order practically in real time. If that is a reality on a small scale, with products whose value does not exceed 40 or 50 euros, then this is all the more important when the safety of hundreds of people or the protection of assets of great economic value is at stake. Think of aircraft tracking (of course, we will talk about the use of small satellites
