  1. E-NAVIGATION A challenge for the Shipping Industry John Murray International Chamber of Shipping

  2. E-NAVIGATION “e-Navigation is the harmonised collection, integration, exchange, presentation and analysis of maritime information onboard and ashoreby electronic means ......

  3. E-NAVIGATION Global ‘pilots of e-navigation’ should apply techniques of harmonisation. Is this happening?

  4. CHALLENGES FOR THE SHIPPING INDUSTRY

  5. E-NAVIGATION Experience from related initiatives such as: the Singapore and Malacca Straits “Marine Electronic Highway” (MEH) project, increasingly being applied in other areas such as the Western Indian Ocean, the Black Sea and in Eastern Canada.

  6. E-NAVIGATION The function of the MEH is to enable real-time access to data and information by a broad base of expert and non-expert users from all walks of the maritime community.

  7. Digital Products MEH Digital Products Image Processing, Modeling/forecasting CHALLENGES FOR THE SHIPPING INDUSTRY MEH Information Flow Schematic Radar VTIS GPS E C D I S : - Vessels - Port operators - Maritime surveillance / agencies Satellite imagery Winds, Currents, Tides (real-time) Information Network Environmental Monitoring MEH Node

  8. CHALLENGES FOR THE SHIPPING INDUSTRY DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT Trial data (real time or simulated should be kept separate from the ship’s primary navigation system OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENT Need for live validation of data used in ship’s primary navigation system. Need for confidence in validation authorities in all locations

  9. A CHALLENGE FOR THE SHIPPING INDUSTRY • The Western Indian Ocean Region • Location

  10. THE WESTERN INDIAN - MEH ‘a network of electronic navigational charts ……. in conjunction with DGPS and other maritime technologies, which will form the backbone of a marine highway’

  11. BALTIC SEA - TODAY

  12. CAN E-NAVIGATION BE HARMONISED? Pilot projects include: Baltic, Singapore and Malacca Straits, the Western Indian Ocean, the Black Sea and in Eastern Canada. Does harmonisation occur between developed and developing nations?

  13. CHALLENGES FOR THE SHIPPING INDUSTRY NAV 56/20 - Report to the Maritime Safety Committee The Chairman expressed concern that the overall e-navigation effort was becoming over burdened by having to address extraneous information, documents and proposals that were not relevant to their Terms of Reference or to the e-navigation structure outlined in document MSC 86/23/4. The Chairman made clear that the Sub-Committee had to remain focused on delivering an e-navigation strategy implementation plan as was required by the Committee.

  14. CHALLENGES FOR THE SHIPPING INDUSTRY Implication of NAV 56/20 - Report to the Maritime Safety Committee The complex and technological approach to e-navigation being adopted by many may itself create an inbuilt barrier to achieving harmonised e-navigation

  15. TRAINING for E-NAVIGATION E-navigation should support humans manage information to ensure good situational awareness and facilitate consistently good decision-making. It should be clear that the major challenge is to embrace concern regarding the human element.

  16. TRAINING for E-NAVIGATION There are important questions for STW to consider, such as: who is going to be on the ship in the future, and what should those on board and ashore do, or not do?

  17. TRAINING OPTION 1 The navigators’ own skills will still be essential to the safe navigation of the ship, and the bridge team will be the main backup to the safe functioning of the ship. This will have to be reflected in the principles of the training and certificates required.

  18. TRAINING OPTION 2 In this scenario the data solutions and monitoring equipment are much more sophisticated. The navigator will have to rely heavily on data structure and the displays and there may be less emphasis on the skills and competencies of the navigator. The main task will be to monitor the system displays and the indicators of the system’s health or resilience.

  19. TRAINING OPTION 2 contd. This scenario will include an even closer cooperation with organizations ashore to help secure a safe voyage from berth to berth. A consequence of this scenario is that the ambitions of the seafaring professional could be affected, and there would be implications for the development of the training, education and required competencies for seafarer certificates. It may also impact the recruitment of adequate instructors.
