Andre Burgess

Andre has led the creation of NPL's Assured Autonomy program, which brings together multiple science and technology disciplines. His work on autonomous transportation systems has focused on delivering confidence in the adoption of these emerging technologies. This includes building collaborations across the UK’s transportation sector to establish an integrated digital measurement infrastructure and technical framework to underpin the testing ecosystems – real and virtual – for autonomous systems at all TTRLs. Over the last three years, Andre has coordinated NPL’s involvement in the Maritime Autonomy Assurance Testbed program. 

Presentation

The data and infrastructure requirements for MASS and RO

As the business cases for MASS/remote operations continue to grow, much activity is underway to ensure infrastructure can meet the needs of scaled-up uncrewed operations. Taking what has been learned from the Maritime Autonomy Assurance Testbed (MAAT) program, this presentation will explore the status of some of the critical enablers, including resilient PNT and connectivity, as well as the need for data quality standards and frameworks.
