Steor E-NAV —
is a project to create software and hardware to support
е-Navigation
1
Reduction in number of voice messages exchanged between the vessel and shore services
Minimized radio channel occupancy and simple event logging
2
Raising crew awareness about the environment
Taking correct decisions in critical situations
3
Critical situation prediction
Time for decision making and maneuvering, improving crew safety, and reducing the risk of ecological disasters caused by shipwrecks and oil spills
4
Machine learning and AI-powered enhancements
Offering the crew correct algorithms for overcoming a critical situation and increasing the probability of a successful outcome
5
Route optimization
Shipowners will be able to choose ports based on level of traffic and cost of maintenance, and adjust routes taking into account risk and adverse factors by using up-to-date and objective information as a reference
6
Cost optimization
Shipowners will be able to plan vessel maintenance and reduce operating costs
7
Mitigation of risk of vessel loss
Reduction of losses for shipowners
8
Use of domestically produced equipment
Reducing the impact of sanctions risks on the shipping industry, and complying with the import substitution and localization policy
9
Use of integrated solutions by the same manufacturer
A large reduction in the procurement cost of equipment and software, and a reduction in the cost of systems operation due to provision of subsequent manufacturer services

Maritime Connectivity Platform

Russian segment of Maritime Connectivity Platform. A cloud solution for linking the е-Navigation service providers with shipborne and onshore consumers
Advantages
Rapid information exchange between all participants within the «Vessel-Shore» shared information space
Capability of integration with the international segment
Access to digital services and data from various service providers
