This data is also integrated in the ETA calculation.īreaking the passage up into separate legs allows an ETA to be determined for intermediary waypoints along the route. In fact, the passage segmentation feature allows a minimum and/or maximum speed to be defined for each leg of the trip. Passage segmentationĪlongside currents, the ETA tool also integrates marine traffic regulations. Currents alternate between having a positive or negative effect on the speed of a vessel. In maritime zones with strong currents, such as the English Channel, this factor is critical for calculating a reliable ETA. Integration of the currentĪdrenaShip's smart ETA function works by integrating the effects of the current on a vessel's progress. They do not make any allowances for changes in current expected during the passage. GPS systems are able to provide ETA information that is calculated on a vessel's speed over ground and the distance to travel. A reliable ETA not only lets a route be planned more precisely, but also allows the planning, organisation and logistical management of stopovers. The principleĪdrenaShip calculates the vessel's ETA in real-time, based on constant speed and the effect of the current throughout the passage.Ĭontrolling ETA is a key economic issue faced by the maritime transport industry in order to manage the operations of commercial vessels. The AdrenaShip routing software features a precise calculator of a vessel's ETA.
