Standards-compliant Vessel Traffic Services platform connecting AIS, Radar, CCTV, meteorological and hydrographic data into a single, integrated port operations solution.
PortWeb is a purpose-configured version of MariWeb that includes the features and services that satisfy the needs of port and waterway authorities when deploying Vessel Traffic Services (VTS) systems or similar port monitoring and management systems.
Built on the same 20-year legacy of AIS-centric Maritime Information Systems as MariWeb , PortWeb uses the latest software technologies, methods and applicable standards — and is IALA-compliant for VTS operations.
When using port radars, target detection and extraction are implemented at each radar sensor — reducing the need for high-bandwidth data links between radar sensors and the central information system. PortWeb supports radar types from low-cost solid state dome radars through to 18ft solid state radars used in large ports.
PortWeb delivers a near-real-time HMI using secure HTTPS protocols to a responsive GUI accessible from any modern internet browser. Multiple Electronic Chart Systems can be displayed simultaneously within the same browser window. System topology includes multiple levels of resilience ensuring availability exceeds 99.9% consistently.
The PortWeb Security Application analyses the timing, source and content of every AIS and IEC 61162-1 compliant message. Each message is tested against a wide range of criteria, ensuring only valid and accurate messages are processed — enhancing operator confidence and system safety.
PortWeb provides both streaming and historical analytic capabilities. The PortWeb Event Manager processes events in real time from live data streams, triggering alerts ranging from audible notifications and email through to AIS messages transmitted directly to ships. The PortWeb Analytic Platform generates high-resolution vessel density charts and a wide range of location and status-based reports.
