Navelink officially endorsed as an MCP identity service provider
At the consortium board meeting on the 17’th of May – Navelink was officially endorsed as an MCP identity services provider. As such the consortium has assessed the technical functionality of the service they provide, and the associated procedures – such as vetting procedures for organisations enrolled in their identity registry.
This is a significant milestone for MCP, since Navelink is the first organisation to become endorsed by the MCP consortium. As specifications for the MCP service registry matures – we also envision Navelink to be endorsed as an MCP service registry service provider.

The MCP

The information exchanged can be almost of any nature, ranging from private confidential information between a vessel and the shore office of the shipowner, to public information provided by authorities, such as the provision of navigational warnings.
