Fleet Management system is a powerful web-based service providing a highly
effective way of automatically tracking vessel movements
in real time. It was originally developed in close consultation
with Sealand, a major US maritime transportation group prior
to its acquisition by Maersk, and has since become the satellite
tracking system of choice for 500 carriers operating 10,000
vessels.
The system utilizes the GMDSS Sat-C terminal
already installed on most ocean-going vessels, or specialized
GPS-enabled satellite tracking terminals including Inmarsat
D+, Mini C, and Iridium.
Who would use it, and for what purpose?
Personnel involved in fleet operations,
safety, and customer service use the system to improve
overall operational efficiencies
