European Union Set to Release Code for Maritime Safety Software

,----[ Quote ]
| A tool used to measure the traffic risks of ships at sea in the Mediterranean 
| is about be released as open source software and could have far-reaching 
| implications for vessels across the globe. The Safemed Project, funded by the 
| European Union, provides raw data on the movement of ships -- oil tankers in 
| particular -- that are sailing around the Mediterranean Sea in an effort to 
| track and prevent water pollution.
