• Vessel traffic management and planning
• Traffic monitoring and environmental protection
• Off-shore security and coastal surveillance
• Collision avoidance
• Shore-based pilotage
• Coordination of search and rescue operations
• VTS operator training.

The configuration of the system can include several workstations allowing simultaneous work of a number of operators, a database workstation, record/ playback facility and other modules in the interactive mode.

Available sensors:

• Radar
• AIS transponder
• VHF direction finder
• Weather and Environmental sensors
• TV system
• VHF radio
• Other VTS
• Security sensors (CCTV, Harbour Sonar etc)

Sensor data processing

• Digital radar image generating
• Clutter suppression (sea, rain, CFAR)
• Extracting all relevant target echoes as target plots
• Video and target masking
• Different sensors data multiplexing and transmitting over digital communication line

Alarms
More than 20 alarms may be generated in accordance with set thresholds, including:

• Collision danger
• Anchor dragging
• Speed violation
• Many more

Record and playback

• All data including raw radar image, radar targets, AIS targets, alarms, VHF radio traffic are stored in digital form.
• Navigation situation may be played back in the same graphical and alphabetical form as it was represented during real time operating.

Radar target tracking

• Independent radar processing for target extraction
• Different tracking algorithms for vessel, buoy and fixed targets
• Anti-swapping algorithm
• Automatic or manual acquisition
• Automatic acquisition zone of any shape
• Target zones (no tracking, Shadow area, multi-radar tracking zones)
• Unlimited number of simulated targets
• Target movement prediction
• Multi-radar tracking for areas with overlapping radar

AIS target tracking

• Universal AIS and DSC VTS transponders are available
• Any number of targets reported by base AIS transponder(s)
• Several base AIS transponders to cover wide area
• AIS and radar target fusion
