The main theme of the presentation

The use of information and communication technology (ICT) to achieve better operational

performance and by that reduced environmental impact.

Based on examples, look at future requirements for communication and information

management.

Land based digital radio

Satellite

Necessary for high sea

May not get very high bandwidth

Potential problems with rain fading, shading, latency and cost

Alternative “near”

land: Land based digital radio

Must be used relatively close to coast, port and port approaches

Today: NAVTEX, AIS –

VHF Radio (DSC)

New technology is emerging, e.g., 3G GSM, WiFi etc.

High capacity

Low cost (equipment and infrastructure)

However, limited range

New applications will require more and better information

Optimization of processes: Need to compensate for smaller slack

Automated systems: Depends on high quality information

Process improvement: Accurate measurements of processes
