System Overview
infoceanus connect enables stable and secure connected vessels through ship-to-shore communications and a cloud-based platform that enables two-way communication between ships and shore. We provide solutions for visualizing and analyzing the performance information of fleets and onboard equipment. Continuous equipment condition monitoring and analysis throughout the life of a ship contributes to optimizing operation costs and preventive maintenance. Furthermore, integrating onboard equipment operation information with weather and oceanographic information enables energy-saving operation and reduced environmental impact.

Function
Build the infoceanus connect using the components in the previous section. The application uses a browser to access the platform on the cloud and displays the following information:
-
Fleet Overview Display
The current location of each of your vessels is displayed on a map in real time.
-
Dashboard display
Selecting a vessel’s icon on the map will display key information and data for that vessel.
-
Navigation information display
Data from navigational instruments is acquired and the following information is displayed on the ship’s terminal in real time.
-
GNSS : Ship’s direction and speed
-
GYRO compass : Heading of the ship
-
Wind direction anemometer : Wind direction and speed
-
AIS : Information on other ships
Data from navigational instruments is assumed to be output to the system via serial communication or Ethernet using the NMEA communication protocol.
It also displays the route taken from the previous location to the present on a map.
-
Engine information display
The following information is displayed by obtaining engine data from the ship’s Alarm Monitoring System.
-
Main engine load
-
Main engine speed
-
Fuel consumption (main engine and auxiliary engines)
-
Generator power
-
Cylinder exhaust gas temperature and deviation
-
Equipment temperatures
-
Cooling water temperature
-
Equipment pressures
-
Display AIS information
Based on the received AIS information, a list will be displayed on the screen in order of distance from the DCPA. Also, when you select a list, detailed information about AIS will be displayed.
-
Animation display
The following information is displayed from the acquired data.
-
Compass display of heading and wind direction (true and relative)
-
Load diagram, power curve, generator power
-
Power curve
-
Trend graph display
The following information is displayed from the acquired data.
-
Main engine load
-
Cylinder deviation, exhaust gas temperature
-
Cooling water temperature
-
Cylinder temperature, exhaust gas temperature
-
Temperature (various temperatures)
-
Pressure (various pressures)
-
Generator power
-
Trend graph comparison
You can specify the trend graphs of the main engine and generator for a specified period (year, month, day, hour, minute), and compare the trend graphs for that period.
You can also compare with trend graphs of other ships, not just your own ship.
-
Alarm display
Displays the alarm details, alarm history, and operation log of the ship’s Alarm Monitoring System.
-
Display list of channel
Displays real-time channel data from the ship’s Alarm Monitoring System.
