Practical Application with realexamplesConnectivity at sea
so that ships don’t
disappear beyond
the horizon• Just as any modern office or production siteashore, new built ships depend on digitalsolutions that require connectivity.
• The benefits of connectivity at sea are taking
over the cost. These include, amongst others,transparency, crew welfare, and mostimportant of all safety.
• Fleet Operations Centres, emergency response
services and ports require access to real-timeship data to ensure safe operations andappropriate actions in case of distress.

When you transfer
ship data to a cloud platform• Increased situational awareness on shoreside,
monitoring safety and operations in real-time• Shared overview onboard and onshore – Readily available
for key operations with constant updates for better
coordination and efficiency• Standardised and integrated data pool on one platform• Comprehensive fleet operational profile – Collect andcombine data from many onboard systems with API(Application Programming Interface).
• Tamper-proof system backup and historical data storage• Building block for semi-autonomous decision supportsystems

The stability computer connects to the cloud
platform to revolutionize how ship operators
manage daily vessel stability from the shoreside.
• Live situational awareness, monitoring and faster
response with color-coded stability status overview.

• Comprehensive fleet operational profile by combining
data with other sources such as AIS, e-Logbook andthird-party systems.
• Ultimate voyage planning and deadweight
management with simulations and data on cloud.

• Benchmarking operational trends across the fleet tospot optimization opportunities.
• Historical data as feedback for better efficiencies andship design.

8MONITOR AND ANALYZE YOUR SHIPS’ OPERATIONAL,TECHNICAL, AND SAFETY PERFORMANCEExample 2: Emergency
Preparedness and Response
Monitor and reduce everyday risk; respond faster to emergencies with precision.

napa.fiFaster responseto emergencies
To respond faster and with precision, the shore
must automatically get alerted of the conditions
onboard, saving the crew's crucial time to focus onaction-taking instead of communication with ERS.
• Exact situation awareness with Vessel TRIAGE
categorization, if damaged.
• Decision support with dynamic survivability
prediction on a timeline.
• Special advisory cards for handling flooding.
• Live condition updates to shoreside, as-it-happens
on board.

• Faster response based on actual damage
information shared with Emergency Response
Service (ERS).

10SAVING TIME ONBOARD TO EMERGENCY MANAGEMENTINSTEAD OF COMMUNICATION WITH ERSFaster responseat shoreside
Emergency response services (ERS) can at any
time download new stability situation files
and analyze, without depending on onboard
input.
• Stability related data in the cloud gives time-saving
potential onboard for gathering data to be sentashore• This will in-turn enable emergency service to deliveradvice faster response

Regulatory changes andFlag approval for using
electronic logbooks

Stricter data reporting
requirements

Need for easierdata handling andmanagement

Recent changes
around electroniclogbook regulation
IMO Resolutions:• A.916(22) Navigation related record keeping• A.1052(27) Port State Control procedure• MSC.333(90) Voyage data recorder• MEPC.312(74) Guidelines for the use of electronic
record books under MARPOL (and amendments toMEPC.314(74), MEPC.316(74) and MEPC.317(74))

The use of electronic logbooks is accepted by manymajor flag administrations“It is recognized that the ERB
allows ships to utilize available
technology to reduce
administrative burdens andcontribute to the onboard
environmental initiatives”

Electronic logbook
solutions create a
massive data pool
1. Collects data from numerous sources:•Manual entry•

Automation and navigation signal, plus third-partysystems•

Calculated data: distances, average speed, windspeed.

•Fleet-wide log entries across all logbooks•

Other onboard systems

2. API option for fetching all this data tothird-party systems.

Shoreside Data:
Already being used
Cloud solutions can generate specialized
reports:• ESG Reports• Technical Performance Reports• Safety compliance ensured with digitalrecords (drills, permit to work, etc.)• Environmental reports like MRV / DCS / CII
