The Varna Port Pilot MVP#1 - Blind Navigation builds on the ILIAD Digital Twin of Varna Bay. Based on real time information processing and modeling it helps ship pilots and captains to navigate marine vessels in the Varna Port Complex even under limited visibility.

Increasing the number of days Varna Port Complex remains operational contributes towards reducing the carbon dioxide emissions emitted from ships waiting to enter the Harbour facilities.
