AN Internet of Ships Open Platform (IoS-OP) data centre has established by Nippon Kaiji Kyokai (Class NK) to share data collected from vessel operation throughout the entire maritime industry, Japanese shipping giant NYK has announced.
NYK will proactively make use of the IoS-OP to improve safety and reduce environmental loads, and thus create an innovative, new business model
The NYK Group will proactively make use of the IoS-OP to improve safety and reduce environmental loads, and thus create an innovative, new business model.
When satellite tests are conducted for transmitted and received data between data-collecting equipment ashore or afloat, limitations become apparent due to disconnects between parties.
To solve this, ShipDC established a testbed for IoS-OP at an NK information centre located in Chiba, Japan, to conduct tests in an environment that is very similar to the one found on board.
NYK previously worked to gather and use operation data from 2008, and was able to reduce fuel consumption and detect engine failure at an early stage. Last September it teamed up with the NTT Group to develop a next-generation onboard IoT platform.
This added a new system that would enable the remote distribution and management of onboard applications from land offices. This IoT platform complies with ISO19847/19848 (standard for shipboard data servers to share field data on the sea and standard data for shipboard machinery and equipment).
