Towards integrated engineering data platform for vessel monitoring

Abstract

Presently full-scale engineering measurements on the SA Agulhas II include almost 200 channels of continuously recorded data. Engineering data is captured using a variety of sensors and data acquisition platforms at different rates of acquisition. The data is also received in a variety of formats such as time series or video formats. The present work proposes an engineering data platform which adds value to real-time recordings. It is envisioned that data can be aggregated, visualized and analysed during an almost real-time process through a central user interface and appropriate data architecture on the vessel. This work paves the way towards in-situ ship monitoring whereby engineering calculations provide parameters, which are assessed in semi-real time in relation to ship design limits. - Abstract as displayed in the - Abstract booklet.
