The device for detecting mooring in a navigable area comprises: means for detecting the presence of a boat close to a berthing member or attached to said berthing member, means (56) for transmitting information representative of the detection performed and means (59) for transmitting a request (58) to a communicating portable terminal (56) associated with the user of the boat of which a movement has been detected, in order to receive, in return, an envisaged duration of presence of the boat in the navigable area.

There is provided a moving body including: an optical wireless communication unit configured to execute an optical wireless communication with another moving body; an object detection unit configured to detect an object around an own moving body; an object information transmission unit configured to transmit, to the other moving body, first object information including location information of the object, by the optical wireless communication or a radio wave communication; an object information receiving unit configured to receive, from the other moving body, second object information including location information of an object around the other moving body, by the optical wireless communication or the radio wave communication; and a movement control unit configured to control, based on the first object information and the second object information, a movement of the own moving body such that an object is not located on an optical axis of the optical wireless communication.

A ship information displaying system can easily grasp the size of a ship intuitively. The system includes a position detector that detects a position of a ship and generates positional data, a direction detector that detects a heading of the ship and generates directional data, a memory that stores size data indicative of a flat dimension of the ship on the basis of a detected location of the positional data in the ship, processing circuitry that places a ship object indicative of the ship at a position in a virtual three-dimensional space corresponding to the positional data, with an orientation corresponding to the directional data and a size corresponding to the size data and that generates an image containing the ship object by rendering a scene based on a viewpoint position and a line-of-sight direction set in the virtual three-dimensional space, and a display that displays the image.

The present disclosure provides a system for autonomously controlling a fleet of carrier platforms on a water body surface, each carrier platform hosting and being configured to deploy and retrieve one or more sub-carriers for autonomously carrying out operations in a marine environment. The one or more carrier platforms and sub-carriers of the system each have navigation and positioning modules for coordinating movements and are also centrally managed via an intelligent central control system from which the operations of the fleet can be monitored and controlled. The present invention solves the retrieval issue presented by deploying unmanned sub-carriers in complex real-world environments. The invention provides for a modular retrieval system for unmanned sub-carriers.

Predictive analytics techniques are used to produce leading indicators of economic activity based on factors determined from a range of available data sources, such as public and/or private transportation data. A fee-based subscription system may be provided for the sharing of leading indicators to users. A consistent, semantic metadata structure is described as well as a hypothesis generating and testing system capable of generating predictive analytics models in a non-supervised or partially supervised mode.

A system and a method are disclosed for enabling seamlessly tracking a location of a water vessel by supplementing satellite data with mobile data location based on proximity of a water vessel to shore. The system receives a Global Positioning System (GPS) location of the water vessel, the GPS location of the water vessel based on using the satellite data of the water vessel. The system determines that the GPS location is within a threshold distance of a boundary. Responsive to determining that the GPS location is within the threshold distance of the boundary, the system initiates monitoring for a mobile signal emanating from a trajectory path of the water vessel. The system detects, during the monitoring, the mobile signal, the tracking the location of the water vessel based on mobile data of the mobile signal. The system provides the tracked location to a monitoring device.

A method and system for prediction of wave properties include collecting time series data streams from one or more wave measurement devices and processing the data using a wave-prediction algorithm to identify the frequency components of the data and compute wave parameters. The wave-field is propagated in space and time to predict wave height, speed, and velocity at a target location. A sliding window approach is used to continuously update the prediction in real-time.
