International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 27-30, 1997 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / The Vessel Traffic Management System is a cooperative effort of the Naval Undersea
Warfare Center and the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division, funded by the OSD's
Test Technology Development and Demonstration Program. The project is establishing the
capability to acquire ship tracking information from numerous sources (GPS and radar
target extractors), and combine them into a comprehensive, integrated view of the range
safety target area. The consolidated tracking information will be transmitted to range
safety vessel personnel and presented on portable display systems to aid in clearing the
surveillance area of unauthorized vessels. The communications module is media
independent in that positional and image data can be routed via RF modem, cellular phone,
Intranet or Internet, singly or in any combination. The software systems for data
acquisition, display and control are also platform independent, with the system under
development operating under WindowsNT and Windows95. Additionally, the use of Java
and VRML tools permits a user to display data (including three dimensional presentations
of the data) without requiring the applications software. This system has numerous
applications including range safety, commercial vessel traffic management, port authority
and services monitoring, and oceanographic data gathering.
