An enhanced and smart Fleet management page for Vessel Managers ensures the loading of a fleet’s biofouling information is simple, intuitive and clear.

• Fleet Biofouling Data Capture Status – a fleet summary of how much biofouling information has been loaded onto Vessel-Check.
• Fleet Biofouling Risk – shows the number of vessels in a fleet in each risk category.
• Fleet table – a list of vessels in a fleet including last destination port, approval and data status, risk breakdown and overall risk. Embedded links and hover over pop-up comments guide vessel managers through the data loading process.

Allows regulators to flag vessel nominations for further actions and secure sharing of aquatic biosecurity information with other regulators, powerfully combined with AIS information. Flagged Vessel Help Documents.

Provides a central and accessible area for recording of any relevant information, documents and digital files. Log Help Documents.

Utilising technology from DHI’s “GlobalSEA Oilspill” and “PlumeCast applications“, the dispersion scenario module will combine national and global MIKE models to hindcast and forecast potential affects or “zone of influence” of an Invasive Aquatic Species (IAS). This service will:

• provides scenario runs to aid in developing response plans, cleaning site selection, and an understanding of the effects of various environmental conditions.
• can be used to aid in-water clean planning, risk assessments and approvals.
• delivers user friendly, graphical, scientific evidence.
• helps guide management actions during and post event.

A simple way to push and pull data into and out of Vessel-Check.

• Allows regulators to upload their own forms for pre-population, completion and submission – all within Vessel-Check.
• Allow Vessel Managers to use the data in Vessel-Check for form completion, submission and management.
• Is designed specifically to work with marine arrival reporting systems and biosecurity forms.

The Vast possibilities of Agent-Based Modelling
Recorded, 29 April 2020

In this 30-minute webinar see how to simulate the dynamic behaviour of aquatic life and their interactions with the environment to investigate the impact of disturbances on habitat connectivity, marine animal migration and population levels. Watch now!
