Digital twins for port familiarisation

Experience an immersive visualisation of a port entry and exit scenario with our new digital twin concept.

Using cutting edge gaming engine technology, combined with official ADMIRALTY data and dynamic environmental data feeds, the tool provides a 4D visualisation of the port environment in varying conditions. 

By providing a realistic depiction of port entry and exit customised to your vessel, this technology enables mariners to familiarise themselves and rehearse navigational scenarios in varying conditions.
 

Watch our video to find out more about the benefits of digital twins, or ask one of our staff members to experience the technology for yourself.

S-100

The next generation of data standards

With more data being collected and shared across the maritime industry than ever before, having a common set of standards is key to making this data accessible, compatible and valuable for all users.

The S-100 data framework will provide a universal standard that will underpin the future navigational technologies with more powerful maritime information - from high density gridded bathymetry to dynamic tidal data. The UKHO are at the forefront of developing S-100 solutions by developing and testing new data sets and conducting real-world sea trials.
 

Watch our video to explore the latest standards or speak to one of our experts today on how S-100 will enable future navigational solutions.
