VSMS software will be implemented with commercially available hardware to perform operational prototype testing onboard a 28-metre factory freezing vessel M/V SUVAK.
If this project ends successfully, Seashore will have a turn-key VSMS with real-time reporting capabilities that can be tailored specifically to meet the needs of various individual vessels.
VSMS will enable detailed monitoring activities on non-classed commercial vessels and its main purpose is to provide higher security standards. Project is supported by the Research & Development Corporation (RDC) in order to strengthen and improve the research system throughout the province of NL.
