The interviewed bridge crew of Frej was very positive. The satellite image updated every day is intensively studied. Changes due to wind drift of the ice are studied, openings, and ridges are visible.
|
Even if the system allows overlay of some geographical features like the coastline, or the 10 m depth couture, it is not an ECDIS and integration with other types of chart information is not possible.

Maritime Data Collection System
|
The Maritime Data Collection System (MDCS) is a web‐based system that allows coastal agencies and hydrographic agencies of countries within the BLAST project to gather new information for use in nautical publications and charts for the North Sea.
Charts and sailing directions are still manually updated based on observation reaching the different hydrographic and coastal administrations from mariners and other reporters. These reports are delivered by radio, telephone or email.
|
In every country there may be several authorities that have the responsibility of updating nautical publications of different kinds. Often it can be difficult for the mariner to know to whom he should report a detected discrepancy.
MDCS will allow members of the public, or professionals like pilots, fishermen and seafarers to enter information through a generic web interface in the whole of the North Sea Region and the information will automatically be routed to the proper authority.
