Abstract(s)
Information Sharing (IS) is essential for organizations to obtain information in a cost-effective way. If the
existing information is not shared among the organizations that hold it, the alternative is to develop the
necessary capabilities to acquire, store, process and manage it, which will lead to duplicated costs, especially
unwanted if governmental organizations are concerned. The European Commission has elected IS among
public administrations as a priority, has launched several IS initiatives, such as the EUCISE2020 project
within the roadmap for developing the maritime Common Information Sharing Environment (CISE), and has
defined the levels of interoperability essential for IS, which entail Semantic Interoperability (SI). An open
question is how can IS performance be managed? Specifically, how can IS as-is, and to-be states and targets
be defined, and how can organizations progress be monitored and controlled? In this paper, we propose 11
indicators for assessing SI that contribute to answering these questions. They have been demonstrated and
evaluated with the data collected through a questionnaire, based on the CISE information model proposed
during the CoopP project, which was answered by five public authorities that require maritime surveillance
information and are committed to share information with each other.
