We encourage industry integration with eLandings. Currently at least two processors generate and submit XML reports directly into our system, and other processors extract XML reports from our system for import into their systems. We are planning to add vessel logbook reporting to eLandings, and anticipate accepting logbook reports from multiple independent software vendors. We expect these types of system-to-system data exchange and integration to increase in number and importance over time.
It is already clear from experience with the Ocean Phoenix that we and our customers would be well served by automated interface testing and certification mechanisms.
This section documents ideas and notes pertaining to a test and certification service for eLandings interface consumers.
