Vessel Approach Monitoring
The 'DockAlert' vessel docking system uses 2 distance-measuring lasers on the mooring jetty to compute the speed of approach, angle of approach and distance off for a vessel being manoeuvred onto a dockside mooring. The vessel approach parameters can be displayed in the harbour office, and also made available to the ship's master via a Large Digital Display on the jetty which is visible from the ship, or otherwise by a data link.
With the vessel moored alongside, 'DockAlert' can provide information on drift-off and fender compression. External items can be supplied certified for use in hazardous areas, such as oil/gas jetties. 'DockAlert' can be supplied stand-alone or integrated into the 'Berth Manager' overall jetty surveillance system.
