This
page is intended to point out some applications of metocean studies to
the improvement of shipping conditions, performance and safety: conventional
routeing, high speed crafts operation, unconventional transports, classification,

Ifremer
suggested a few years ago an idea to investigate how novel metocean
information sources could improve shipping safety. The COMKISS (COnveying
Metocean Knowledge Improvements onto Shipping Safety) project idea
was taken over by Satellite Observing Systems and University of Lund,
and presented within the EWSE (CEO) framework for EC funding, which
was granted. The following demonstration modules are based on results
of the COMKISS project. |

This
study is an application of real-time satellite data to marine operations
and unconventional transports. |
|
Can
satellite measurements of currents improve the route choices and shorten
the voyage duration for transportation at sea ? |
|
|
How satellite measurements of waves and wind can improve the climate
data used for the design of transportation at sea. |
|
|
A theoretical basis for the statistical analysis of
responses experienced by a vessel during a voyage. |
|
|
How statistical analysis of satellite measurements can be used in
assessment of the criteria for safety with respect to fatigue and
failure on a given route. |
|
|
Can
satellite data improve High Speed Passenger Craft operation, allow
for advance cancellation with more confidence, and avoid unnecessary
cancellations ? |
|
|
Can
satellite data improve climatological studies for High Speed Craft
performance assessment ? |
