Services / Electronic Charting and Navigation

THE latest and potentially greatest advance in marine technology, since GPS …

And the biggest revolution in navigation since the introduction of radar.

What are we talking about? ECDIS (Electronic Chart Display and Information Systems).

Strong claims? Well, let’s look at the world around us today.

Given the global domination of computer technologies, and the fact that most of our planet’s daily life is now administered using computers, it is hardly surprising that the marine industry is now, finally, facing its own computerised future.

Today's mariner is looking for something with the same standards of quality as the traditional paper chart, but which fits the demands of a new navigational era …

A computer system which makes our oceans and seaways inherently safer and which, by optimising safe and efficient navigation, also saves time and money for its users.

MOBILE MARINE TECHNOLOGY is a company operated by experienced and highly qualified mariners who specialise in providing technology and training solutions within the global marine industry.

As a business which has developed around servicing the navigation requirements of the industry, Mobile Marine Technology recognise the impact the transition to ECDIS will have.

We are committed to a position in the forefront of that transition.

Which is why we have embarked upon a bold program of innovation, intended to provide existing and future customers with the ultimate ECDIS service package.

Electronic charts are the next generation of navigational charts.

Their electronic formats simplify traditional navigation processes such as route planning and chart updating, and enable automation of route tracking through use of satellite positioning devices.

These features can greatly enhance navigational safety by improving situational awareness, especially in busy or confined waters.

Norske Veritas have stated that the frequency of ships groundings could be reduced by 40% through the use of ECDIS. And an American study claims 90% of groundings can be attributed to navigation failures … and that 70% of these could be avoided through the use of ECDIS.

Ready now to swallow that radar claim?
