Objective
WINGS-FOR-SHIPS aims to develop, demonstrate and validate a new maritime intelligent workplace based weather information system and decision support for maritime transport and other applications. These will be realised by linking fixed/mobile communications with navigation/positioning, efficient transmission and delivery over the network as well geo-information. These services will allow the shipmaster to have seamless access to, and interaction with intelligent, customised (route based) rich content multimedia information on the efficient and safe navigation passage for passengers, freights and the environment both on board ship and inland. The new and intelligent approach in WINGS-FOR-SHIPS is a decision-support tool looking at forces and stresses on the ship as function of the local, accurate real-time weather information. Prediction models are also included for detailed estimation of weather parameters in local approach routes. The information is finally presented user-friendly in a familiar ECDIS digital chart on board ships, but also via Internet and WAP for shipmasters on land. WINGS-for-SHIPS will include an automatic system including dynamic calculations using ship and sea area models as well as real-time weather information.
