The HarbourPilot Fixed, is the ultimate tool for total situational awareness to ensure safe navigation of vessels. Receive accurate and real-time vessel dynamics information on any number of screens to equip the vessels’ navigational crew and key personnel and synchronise operations and communication. HarbourPilot Fixed is user-friendly and becomes a familiar secondary source of reliable and accurate information which is independent of the ships’ navigational systems. Facilitate critical decision making during ship-handling and improve safety of crucial manoeuvres with the HarbourPilot Fixed. Easily add-on shore based data from a server to enhance the information modules to include weather, tides, DUKC and other critical data to support navigation. Acts as a fall back navigational system that can optionally include battery back-up to provide a totally independent navigational tool in case all else fails.
