GECDIS is a powerful navigational aid system with a geographic information system, ECDIS certified, working on standard computers fitted with Windows® NT, Windows® 2000 or Windows® XP.

GECDIS contributes to safe navigation and allows to carry out route planning and route monitoring in a simple and reliable way.

Navigational aid is given by displaying electronic charts, on which information from the ship equipment and sensors connected to GECDIS are displayed, such as: GPS, Radar (overlayed or/and ARPA tracks), gyrocompass, loch, depth-sounder or any navigation device. Other information can also be displayed onto specific layers, such as weather files.

GECDIS fits IMO and IEC regulations for cartographical data storage (SP57) and their displaying (SP52). GECDIS can also read C-Map vector and raster charts (British Admiralty, etc.).

GECDIS is fitted with in-line and independent tools, allowing system customization according to three levels: ship's equipment, the user and his practices, hierarchy and access rights.

Furthermore, GECDIS provides independent back-up arrangements to ensure safe navigation in case of a failure. So if your machine suddenly malfunctions, the sofware parameters do not need to be reinitialised manually and operator settings do not change.
