SEATONOMY Design, development and validation of marine autonomous systems and operations

Abstract

The SEATONOMY methodology provides a structured approach for design, development and validation of mobile autonomous maritime operations and systems. The goal is to achieve this by providing system developers of autonomous systems with suitable guidelines, principles, best practices and tools. The methodology encompasses three viewpoints: operational, system and verification & validation. Industrial use cases are used as both input to the methodology, as well as pilotcases for an iterative testing and development of the methodology.
