The joint project  LAESSI (Leit- und Assistenzsysteme zur Erhöhung der Sicherheit der Schifffahrt auf Inland-Wasserstraßen) is coordinated by the company  in-innovative navigation GmbH and carried out together with  Alberding GmbH, WSV Fachstelle für Verkehrstechnik (Federal Waterway and Shipping Administration) and DLR  (Aerospace Center, Institute for Navigation und Communication (Neustrelitz .

The project focuses on the the development of assistance functions to avoid bridge collision, provide precise guiding lines, navigation helper during mooring and at narrow river sections (conning display) as well as on exact display of vessel positions and movements. Project runtime will be from October 2015 til September 2017 and it is funded by the BMWi (German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy).

The aim is to enhance safety of the environmentally friendly transport on inland waterways by decreasing the risk of collisions.

In the frame of the project TECNOPORT 2025, the company Portel Servicios Telemáticos S.A. will install a new AIS system for traffic surveillance and guidance along the river Guadalquivir from Port of Seville down to the Atlantic.

in-innovative navigation GmbH has been commissioned to deliver their proven software and display solutions for detection, processing and presenting the traffic data. Besides AIS information commonly used for VTS systems, it is planned to integrate meteorological and hydrological data for the first time.

Traffic data together with CCTV images and current weather and water level for each river section will be available in a customized display solution at the traffic center. Furthermore, a web access to these data will enable other authorized user in future to profit from this new service. This might be port authorities or other stakeholders, e.g. companies for transport and logistics.

The river Guadalquivir with a total length of 657 km is the longest river in Andalusia and the only navigable river in Spain. Today, it is navigable for container ships up to Seville, from where already Christopher Columbus set sail for his travel; smaller vessels can navigate even as far as Cordoba.

It is expected that the technical modernization of this inland waterway, which is still important for Spain, will also support the upswing of the economic significance 0f Seville in international trade.

As a market leader in Europe for hardware and software solutions with respect to navigation, telematics and traffic surveillance on waterways, we are happy to present our newest products in Rotterdam on the EUROPORT (November 03 – 06, 2015) in Hall 3, booth no. 3321.

Our inVTS Solutions are in operation for lock management, in port surveillance systems and for protection of offshore wind farms, but also as complete coastal surveillance systems.

inDTS, RADARpilot720° and RADARpilot720° OS (Open Sea) are our user friendly display systems meeting the highest requirements for application on inland waterways, in the sea, as well as in in traffic or training centers. As special highlight on the EUROPORT, the new web based traffic viewport inWebDTS can be tested.

As hardware innovation, we show our new RADARinterface card for PCIe-Bus. This card is equipped with a 14 bit analog/digital converter providing a maximum of resolution. The software itself now offers the options necessary for configuration and calibration, thereby simplifying the installation on board. The new RADARinterface card ensures the continuity of our products and installations in a rapidly changing technology environment.

The highest spot on the uninhabited island Gyaros was chosen as position for the 12 feet radar scanner to ensure long range surveillance. The radar video provided by the scanner is transmitted via radio connection to a center on the island Syros, where data processing, analysis and display take place with the proven components of in-innovative navigation GmbH. In case of a violation of the Nature Conservancy Law, the responsible authorities will be informed immediately.

The installation of the system is part of a project of WWF, the central collection and evaluation of data takes place in the office ‘Development Corporation of Local Authorities of Cyclades S.A’.

 

This year, we will be represented again  at the SHIPPING–TECHNICS–LOGISTICS–Kalkar, which  takes place for the second time. At booth 156, we will show you all novelties with respect to our proven navigation system RADARpilot720° and our VTS systems used for surveillance at offshore wind farms.

We are looking forward seeing you there!

Sinces 2012 certificated, the company in-innovative navigation GmbH receives the recertification without any deviations by TÜV Rheinland Cert GmbH on July 17th, 2015. Proof has been furnished by means of an audit that the requirements of ISO 9001:2008 are met for the scope: Development, production, sales and distribution of components and systems for navigation, traffic surveillance and traffic management.

in-innovative navigation is awarded the contract to deliver and install a radar based VTS system on Giaros Island, one of the northern Kiklades Islands. The radar scanner will be located on the highest mountain of the island and provide surveillance of the environment. The system will help to protect the breeding area of the endangered sea turtle.
