As of PUC1, the PUC3 pilot demonstrations were designed to follow a “in crescendo” approach, enabling the effective development and testing of the technological components. This process consisted of two iterations of increasing complexity. 

The main objective of PUC3 pilot demonstration is to detect and intercept a large shipment of e-waste en route from a European port to the Gulf of Guinea, using PERIVALLON’s data analysis and satellite imagery. In particular, the pilot will merge the exploitation of data of maritime routes and predicted routes, using Automatic Identification System (AIS) datasets, and the detection of dark vessels using satellite imagery.  

First Iteration (March 2025, Online)- Second Iteration (October 2025) 

While the PUC3 – first iteration that was carried out successfully on the 5th of March 2025 (online), the second iteration was conducted on October 1st, 2025, and served as the final pilot of PUC3, following the release of the third prototype of the PERIVALLON platform. Both demonstrations were led by SATCEN with the support of the technical partners CERTH, ETRA, KPLER, and POLIMI. 

Following the successful completion of this second and final iteration, the PUC3 pilots have fully demonstrated the maturity and operational readiness of the PERIVALLON platform. A total of 57 participants among Consortium partners, Advisory Board members, and external stakeholders attended the pilots in remote mode.
