Monitoring Vessel Traffic
Managing shipping lanes in real time takes powerful, fault-tolerant monitoring tools like those included in ILOG solutions. Maritime authorities depend on ILOG's highly ergonomic and intuitive visualization tools to clearly and accurately capture the movements of vessels passing through controlled waterways. Information on make and type of vessel, ownership, origin and destination must be shown for each large vessel, presented in a physically referenced graphical environment. Displaying this essential information enables maritime authorities to maximize traffic while reducing congestion, and improve security along coastlines, in harbors and through major river systems.
Real-time visualization
Today, key maritime authorities use highly reliable and intuitive graphical user interfaces (GUIs) built with ILOG visualization technology. These GUIs enable real-time monitoring of traffic and on-screen interaction with data sources. They consolidate information, taking data from diverse sources -- radar and sonar sensors, databases and identification systems, for example -- and display it in a well-organized, highly ergonomic graphical environment. Authorities can identify and plot the course of vessels from the moment they enter monitored waters.
Fully interactive displays
Maritime authorities around the world have adopted ILOG visualization to track vessels in real time. ILOG provides everything necessary for quickly building fully interactive GUIs.
- Industry-specific graphic objects
ILOG provides a way to quickly and easily implement industry-specific graphic objects and behaviors. Users need only import and connect a graphic object in order to use it. This simplifies and expedites development by eliminating the need for research and design work to create a graphic for a project.
- High-performance display engines
ILOG visualization engines are among the fastest on the market, ensuring real-time display whenever possible.
- Unparalleled development tools
Developers get a complete set of graphical editing and deployment tools. Users can fully modify a graphic object, add it to a display and connect it to a data source.
- Maps and mapping tools
To fully comprehend the location of a vessel, a controller must see the ship displayed in a map. ILOG provides an entire visualization system devoted to enhancing GUIs with cartographic information. The system includes maps of regions throughout the world.
- Full compliance with other systems
ILOG software is designed to work with all the leading systems. It easily integrates with systems from across the entire industry.
- Web support
All ILOG software fully supports Web-based applications. Key maritime control systems have been made Web-accessible with Java visualization from ILOG.
