It also makes it simple to create the reports required by port state control and class auditors for checking a vessel’s ECDIS compliance. NauticalManager eases the bridge-side burden of ENC management by making it simple to order Of? cial ENCs, review the chart portfolio and integrate temporary and preliminary Notices to Mariners, according the manufacturer.NauticalManager was developed after ECDIS users requested a way to simply or automatically plan routes that are in compliance with the ECDIS mandate. It features automated route planning and chart selection – resulting in better voyage planning and less time spent managing digital information. Routes are generated from a database containing thousands of waypoints, legs and ports, allowing a mariner to simply edit a recommended route and transfer it straight to an ECDIS. With NauticalMa-nager, users also can create a semi-automatic route from anywhere on a chart. The NauticalManager software can also integrate supplementary data layers that provide: ENC Notices to Mariners, including daily temporary and preliminary (T&P) notices; DNV-recognized weather information; Accurate piracy overviews; Noti? cation before charts expire; Weekly updates of the entire chart portfolio; and Noti? ca-tion when new charts, weather updates and chart licenses are availableTo increase user friendliness, NauticalManager guides mariners through the process of route planning, chart selection and ordering and the downloading of weather forecasts. The solution also comes with instructions on how to keep a chart database up to date and how to export chart licenses to the ECDIS/ECS. www.jeppesen.comK-Sim DP Lowrance Introduces Elite-4 Iris Launches NightRunner The latest version and Mark-4 HDI Series Camera Systemof K-Sim DP, a Lowrance announced the Iris Corporation Dynamic Position-newest addition to its Elite launched its new ing (DP) Maneu-and Mark family of compact NightRunner Dual vering simulator ? sh? nder and chartplotter Payload Thermal from Kongsberg products, the Elite-4 and Imaging/Daylight Maritime received Mark-4 Hybrid Dual Imag- Color Camera.
