MAINTelligence can now more easily leverage their programs to assist in reducing the costs associated with class inspections." Users of MAINTelligence may apply to DNV for a PMS

Implementation Survey where machin- ery components are assessed based on the documented maintenance history contained in MAINTelligence, rather than through mandatory physical inspection.

This gives an approved tool for sim- plifying the process of class surveys, planning the maintenance management functions and implementing a predictive maintenance program all in one system and in one database. MAINTelligence can also manage engine room data log- ging requirements, using intrinsically safe handheld computers.

Emmi Network Launches

Shipcontrol.com

ShipControl, designed for the manage- ment of shipping companies, shipown- ers, maritime transport and merchant marine, offers a range of applications and flexibility. Shipping companies can control their fleets from the site www.shipcontrol.com through the new positioning system from an Internet- enabled computer. They will obtain in real time the position, course and speed of the vessel represented on an elaborate marine chart. Emmi Network developes customized applications for the different shipping companies as has been done with the Spanish firm

Transmediterranea one of the first com- panies to use the tracking system.

NAVIGATION IGMDSS

Maritime simulators and training concepts

The Poseidon Borealis Simulator is a modular system that can be extended from a stand-alone Radar/

ARPA simulator on a single PC to a complete bridge set up with ship manoeuvring levers and 360 degrees visual simulation.

Engine room simulator and fishery simulator can be optionally integrated in the bridge simulator set-up.

The Poseidon GMDSS Simulator system has for years been the world- leading tool for GMDSS GOC/ROC training.

In addition to the IMO STCW'95 com- pliant GMDSS simulator, Poseidon offers comprehensive teaching aids, instructor training and consultancy.

The Poseidon GMDSS Simulator is specially designed to run effective

Search and Rescue (SAR) exer- cises.
