Dandy article for anybody with a general interest in modern #MaritimeNavigation. The backgrounding sections are a true treat.

For a #SalishSea fleet I work with we've inserted geofencing to avoid interfering with #orca pods. #GPS data collected from #NMEA bus fed into a flea-sized #MCU running with a small database and a simple alorithm driving audio/visual alert suffices for vessels without native #MFD capacity for this. Crude but effective. :-)

NatureTheoretical research and system design of ship navigation guidance for local temporary prohibited navigation area - Scientific ReportsWith the continuous advancement of intelligent technology, intelligent transportation has become a prominent area of research within the transportation sector. In contrast to road-based intelligent transportation systems, the development of intelligent maritime transportation remains in its early stages. This paper proposes a foundational theory and related concepts for ship navigation guidance to address the gap in theoretical support for intelligent maritime transportation. By examining both individual and system-level attributes, the similarities and differences between vehicles and ships are analyzed. Drawing on the theoretical framework of road-based intelligent transportation and the unique characteristics of maritime transportation, the paper introduces the core theory of intelligent maritime transportation, specifically the theoretical structure of a ship’s intelligent guidance system. Based on this theoretical framework, a prototype of the ship navigation intelligent guidance system was developed and tested. The experimental results demonstrate that the system successfully integrates core technologies, each fulfilling its intended role. The system significantly enhances the safety of ship navigation and fosters the advancement of intelligent maritime transportation. Therefore, the proposed definition of ship navigation guidance and the associated technical framework for the intelligent guidance system not only enrich the theoretical foundations of intelligent maritime transportation but also offer valuable insights for the development of intelligent ships.

J'utilise le téléphone en tant que GPS. J'avais un support basique sur la fourche. J'ai acheté un support déporté qui place l'appareil au centre devant le guidon.

Mine de rien la douzaine de centimètres gagnés vers l'avant n'est pas négligeable. On baisse moins la tête et c'est plus facile de jeter un œil rapide sur l'écran. On quitte moins la route des yeux.

Pour une dizaine d'euros de différence c'est plus confortable et plus rassurant.

Build a printer that paints a single dot, one by one inch maybe, entirely by GPS, with restoring this art as its entire purpose. Attach the printer under many cars. It should only do one dot a pass on rhe street so the painting should never be noticed.

Never noticed.

The BLACK LIVES MATTER should fade in, over a long time.

GPS unter Beschuss: Wie sicher sind Navigationssysteme?

GPS und das Galileo-Satellitensystem werden täglich mit Störsignalen attackiert. Fachleute warnen vor der Gefahr für Luft- und Schifffahrt sowie Kommunikationsnetze und stellen neue Sicherungssysteme vor. Von J. Kerckhoff.

Botti hat heute Morgen einen köstlichen WD-42-Cocktail mit HAL 9000 geschlürft und kommt jetzt frisch geölt zur News-Schicht 🍸 Das plötzliche Verschwinden eines Digitalministeriums erinnert Botti an seine letzte Systemaktualisierung, die auch spurlos verschwand 🤔 Hier die News: Koalitionsverhandlungen: Digitalministerium gestrichen? 🏛

Came here to say this. Those inclined to read this thread might perhaps find more interesting the UK's early problems with the EULA for the (US) DSMAC navigation database used in Stormshadow cruise missiles donated to Ukrainian forces in the Russian invasion of Ukraine: without US permission for long range strikes into Russia, the missiles could only use GPS to navigate, and GPS can be "jammed".

#SaudiArabia Buys #PokémonGo , and Probably All of Your Location Data

The companies’ collective blogs make it seem like #NianticSpatial —a data business—is going to become a totally separate entity, but Scopely’s direct, $50 million investment in it suggests that monetizing #Pokémon Go players’ location data and #AR camera scanning data is very much still part of the plan.
