Abstract

Onboard integration of maritime safety information (MSI) with navigation display has been identified as a high priority user need in almost all e-Navigation survey. As a preliminary solution to such user need, a software module is developed in this work. MSI message files received via the onboard receiver are parsed to extract or infer their geospatial extent and time validity from free text, then integrated with the navigation display by correlating with own ship´s navigation sensor data and route plan.
