System and method for determining the mass of a ship moving in water
A system and a method which determines the mass of a ship moving in water, comprising at least two gravitational field strength sensor units that are stationary relative to the ship at a known distance from each other, and an analytical unit which determines the mass of the ship based of measurement signals acquired by the at least two GFS sensor units.
