Danelec and NAVTOR have expanded their longstanding partnership to bring even greater operational efficiency to maritime stakeholders.
The latest integration brings together Danelec's high-frequency data collection infrastructure, Danelec Collect, with NAVTOR's enhanced Digital Logbook solution, creating a seamless bridge between real-time onboard data collection and automated digital record-keeping.
The integration enables NAVTOR’s Digital Logbooks to automatically populate logbook entries with data collected by Danelec’s onboard solution, powered by the Vessel Remote Server (VRS). This significantly reduces manual input and the risk of discrepancies, enhancing the accuracy and accessibility of essential logbook data. This streamlined approach supports more efficient operations, enhanced compliance, and improved decision-making.
Cybersecurity is essential, and Danelec's VRS achieves the highest standards with both IEC 61162-460 Ed. 3.0 Type Approval and IACS E27 certification, guaranteeing a secure and resilient data environment. These certifications confirm that Danelec's data collection system is protected against unauthorized access and tampering, safeguarding valuable operational data during transmission and storage. This heightened security complements NAVTOR's tamper-proof Digital Logbooks, which offer class-approved, secure digital records that are instantly accessible onboard and ashore
“We are thrilled to deepen our cooperation with NAVTOR to offer the maritime industry a combined solution that not only simplifies onboard procedures but also strengthens data integrity. By integrating Danelec Collect with NAVTOR’s class-approved Digital Logbooks, we are reducing the administrative burden on crew members and ensuring operational insights are readily available both onboard and onshore.”
- Claus Borum, EVP Ship Performance / CTO, Danelec
The enhanced NAVTOR Digital Logbooks now have the latest 2.4 update, offering expanded integration capabilities, improved user interfaces, and support for portable and desktop devices. Features include an upgraded Navbox API that enables automatic data transfer and alerts, new homepages for quick event entries, and advanced validation and alert features designed to streamline compliance and reduce the risk of error.
NAVTOR’s Digital Logbooks comply with stringent class and flag state requirements and meet IMO guidelines. They support digital documentation across numerous mandatory records, such as the Oil Record Book, Garbage Record Book, and Ballast Water Log. This paperless solution promotes sustainability and operational efficiency, enabling maritime operators to enhance compliance while reducing their environmental footprint.
“Our collaboration with Danelec exemplifies our commitment to delivering innovative solutions that enhance maritime operations. Integrating our Digital Logbooks with Danelec’s data collection infrastructure provides ship operators with a comprehensive, secure, and efficient approach to onboard data management.”
- Amitabh Sankranti, Director Shipping Analytics,NAVTOR
This collaboration aligns with Danelec's commitment to delivering digital solutions that improve data quality, reduce workloads, and ensure compliance, while also demonstrating Danelec’s agnostic approach to data collection and sharing. This open data ecosystem empowers ship owners and charterers to share operational insights with trusted partners seamlessly. By merging these technologies, Danelec and NAVTOR empower ship operators with a fully digitalized approach to onboard data management, opening new avenues for fleet and vessel monitoring.
