Vessel Traffic Management Systems
Wärtsilä VTMS is designed to effectively manage vessel traffic in ports, harbours, and coastal areas. It provides tools for a coordinated, global approach to maritime traffic control, monitoring and decision support. Our advanced technology enables port-to-port monitoring, control by enabling sharing of information between relevant stakeholders according to their needs and access level.
By utilising automated self-learning decision support technologies, Wärtsilä VTMS makes it possible to operate a ship traffic control model like that available in the aviation industry. The new generation of Ship Traffic Control and Management Solutions extends the safety and efficiency of navigation far beyond the limits of traditional coastal systems. So, ship movements can be advised and controlled by a country, even beyond territorial waters.
The cost-effective solutions are compliant with all IMO and IALA maritime traffic security regulation codes.
