Marine ECDIS Navigation Systems
Date: 10/2/2008

Overview

Electronic Chart Display and Information Systems (ECDIS) are computer-based navigation systems that integrate information from GPS and automatic identification systems (AIS). Advantech's ECDIS solution combines HMI, UNO and EKI products to create a reliable navigation solution for marine vessels of all kinds. 

The key success of this application is its versatility to be applied in several areas:

Commercial vessels
Recreational vessels
Government vessels
SAR Aircraft and Deepwater assets

 

Application

The key to this application are the rugged, compact and fanless computing UNO platforms, which allow integrated solutions for communication, such as positioning/monitoring data between computers and satellite/data servers. The FPM displays used in this application are certified with the DNV certification formarine vessels.

 

The key requirements for this solution are:
