The Advanced Ships Operation Control System (ASOCS) has been newly developed.
ASOCS is a new type navigation supporting system different from the various automatic navigation systems in the market, and can be installed in not only newly built but also existing ships.
ASOCS has functions to show the ship's optimum operation by correlating the ship data including propulsive performance and main engine characteristics with the sea and weather conditions she encounters.
The functions are as follows.
1. Route planning
2. Optimum sail planning
3. Optimum sail keeping
4. Administration of operation
ASOCS is composed of the two subsystems below.
Operation Control Support Subsystem
Automatic Navigation Subsystem
ASOCS is expected to greatly contribute to the fuel-efficiency of the ship.
