SELECT – Artificial Intelligence in Inland Navigation
FleetMon provided inland AIS data for the SELECT project of the TU Berlin. This article, published in the journal Internationales Verkehrswesen, features how data-based arrival time forecasts can increase the reliability of inland waterway transports.

CADMUSS – an innovative project to improve maritime safety
The evaluation of a (maritime) traffic situation requires sound training and professional experience. Decisions can be made based on this training and experience. (Partially) autonomous ships must be trained or require generalized algorithms to react appropriately in any situation. The goal is for vessels to be able to determine the technical manoeuvring distance and the required personal perceived safety distance.

Determining the bilge water waste risk and management in the Gulf of Antalya by the Monte Carlo method
FleetMon supported researchers at the Akdeniz University in Antalya, Turkey and their study on bilge water waste risk in the Gulf of Antalya.
