NAVTOR redefines real-time fleet monitoring with AIS streaming in NavFleet

NAVTOR is steering fleet monitoring and management towards new horizons with the introduction of AIS streaming to the NavFleet platform. In doing so, the Norwegian-headquartered company is “inventing something unique” – using its own digital ecosystem to capture live vessel AIS data so management teams can see exactly where ships are, and what they’re doing, in real-time. Or, as NAVTOR describes it, “in real-real-time”.

The latest release of NavFleet, version 2.7.1, is a landmark upgrade. It integrates a series of new map layers – including IMMA, WCZ, PCA and IMO SA – to help teams understand vessel operational environments without switching from system to system, as well as easier file sharing, and further refinements to bridge the gap between ship- and shore-based teams.

The AIS development, says Tor Håkon Svanes, NAVTOR’s NavFleet Platform Manager, takes centre stage.

He explains: “This creates a new level of awareness for fleet managers, enabling not just better, more informed decision-making, but proactive decision-making. All of a sudden you can see exactly where any vessel is, within the context of its environment and the surrounding vessel traffic, with, compared to current AIS data providers, minimal latency.
