ECPINS

Large detailed view of chart section with vessel track, spot soundings, annotations, and nav data a new concept to safe navigation

Based on more than 10 years of research and tested in over 35 shipboard installations, Offshore Systems

Ltd. (OSL) introduces ECPINS (Electronic Chart/Pre- cise Integrated Navigation System) - a new aid to safe navigation and grounding avoidance.

ECPINS, which will comply with all IMO performance standards for ECDIS, is the most advanced, completely integrated, ship's navigation system available to the shipping industry today.

Detailed chart section with radar image overlay,

RACON signals and nav data

Both Route Planning and Route Monitoring can easily be carried out. Additional ECPINS display/control sta- tions can be connected to the master workstation on the bridge. Efficient Way-Point Steering is performed in conjunction with the ship's autopilot. ECPINS generates alarms in case of navigation sensor input loss, position error, cross track error, and if the projected ship's heading steers into dangerous waters.

Find out how Offshore Systems' ECPINS can make your ships' operations much safer and more efficient.

ECPINS integrates and continuously checks data from GPS, DGPS, gyro, log, depth sounder, radar, and other navigation sensors to present actual "own ship" position on an authorized nautical vector chart. The information can be viewed in multiple scales on several non-overlapping windows with modes North-Up, Course-

Up, Relative Motion and True Motion. For planning or previewing, two different charts also can be shown. off/hore sy/tem / ltd. 1974 Spicer Road, North Vancouver

ECPINS intelligently combines information from a variety of navigation sen- sors on a high-definition electronicchartdisplay. By providing real-time, "own ship" position data and re- lationship to potential haz- ards, ECPINS reduces the workload on the mariner and assists in safe, precise navigation, particularly in confined waters. Coupled with radar image overlay and ARPA target presen- tation, ECPINS helps the navigator in collision avoidance and sets new standards for aids to safe, efficient navigation.
