Graphical User Interface (GUI)

The advanced version of the NAUTICAST™ is fitted with the new Graphical User Interface. The
intention of this interface is to enable the operator to visualize any AIS traffic, which is traveling
around the own position. Fast and direct access to AIS data is supported by display of a list
containing vessel information, which can be reached directly from the Navigation Screen and
viewed in two views (radar and fairway orientations). The NAUTICAST™ display is limited in
resolution and size and should therefore be used as an additional information source only. The
Navigation Screen (without the graphical information) remains the most relevant information
source. The GUI is only visible in the advanced version of the NAUTICAST™ (software version
2.0.1.0 or higher).
NOTE: The Automatic Identification System (AIS) provides additional information from AIS
equipped vessels only. The intentions of the new views are to visualize this AIS data for better and
faster access to the ship details.
