IXBLUE NAVIGATION DATA DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS (NDDS)

Netans acquires controls and processes all navigation sensors data and distributes the consolidated navigation information to the external systems.Netans acts as a consistent common reference system which will ensure that all parts of the system run with the same navigation data.
For each data, the NDDS will qualify in three steps:
• Validity: check the data is conformed to specified criteria
• Integrity: comparison between data
• Plausibility: coherency with data type

To protect navigation system against cyber attack, the NDDS:
• Detect and alert on anomaly on sensor data
• Detect and alert on anomaly on network stream
• Use last standards in Cyber recommendations

Four different size of enclosures (from Netans N1, N2, N3 and N7)
Benefits
• Enhanced navigation safety
• Improved data availability
• Easy and cost–effective retrofit solution
• Conformity to the last international shipping rules and standards adopted by IMO
