Abstract
Background Health observatory (HO) models are helpful in gathering, analyzing, interpreting, and circulating reliable and quality information on population health and health service delivery. In this study, we proposed an HO conceptual model to enhance seafarer's health, which subjects to disease trends. Methods Three methods were followed during the study: a systematic collection of seafarer's health data from the Centro Internazionale Radio Medico (C.I.R.M.) repository, an integrative review of existing seafarer's policy, and both open and closed questionnaires were distributed to stakeholders to develop clinical knowledge. C.I.R.M. is the Italian Telemedical Maritime Assistance Service (TMAS). Results and Discussion. A three-layer HO framework was developed, and each layer had its components and functionalities. The proposed HO model integrated with the outcomes of the mentioned methods was working as the origin of the framework. In this way, we can design a standard infrastructure in ships and risk assessment conduction.

Health observatory (HO) models are helpful in gathering, analyzing, interpreting, and circulating reliable and quality information on population health and health service delivery
Analytical data interpretation was made with text usage, graphs, tables, and other visualization methods to highlight the situation and trends. is will mainly include the collection of relevant datasets from different sources, including Telemedical Maritime Assistance Service (TMAS), seafarer’s clinics, and shipping companies. e data flow was organized with the support of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C)
E networking layer can provide data routing paths for communication over different computers. e data are transferred to this layer in the form of packets through logical network paths in chronological methods that are controlled by the network layer [14]. e data layer is a description of business needs and goals, which are aligned in a format of immediate transfer to technical specifications
