European Digital Naval Foundation
The project “European Digital Naval Foundation” (EDINAF) will enable the integration of a joint naval operational cloud as a component into the broader military multidomain operations cloud.
Goal
EDINAF will work on an IT infrastructure and associated data interface standards (edge and cloud computing). It will support the design and the creation of next generation smart vessels and gather the European supply chain around a common standard applicable to equipment manufacturing and to future naval operations.
