Handling Big Data in
Ship Performance &
Navigation Monitoring.
- 3. Introduction
•Big Data Solutions play an important role in Future Research and
Industrial Applications.
•Strategic Priority Area for the MARINTEK.
•Research and Industrial Applications:
− Data Management: Appropriate actions to develop a bunch of data in a
structured collection.
− Data Analytics: The science of examining these data with the purpose of
drawing meanings about the information.
•The size of these data sets may not make a big difference in these
applications.
•The outcome of the Data set, the meaning, is the most important
aspect of these research and industrial applications.
•Many Fundamental Challenges.
- 4. Objectives
•To address the Fundamental Challenges in Big Data Applications
in Shipping.
− Large Scale Data Sources Data Management
− Sensor Related Issues
− Quality/Quantity of the data
− Data Communication
− Data Interpretation Data Analytics
− Energy Efficiency
− System Reliability
" The data has a structure and
the structure has a meaning"
A Journey towards a Meaningful Data Structure…
Social Analytics
- 5. Data Analytics & Internet of Things
•Conventional Models
− Various Conventional Models have been developed in shipping.
− Some challenges in handling Big Data : data modelling uncertainty, erroneous data
conditions, data visualization challenges and high computational power.
•Machine Intelligence & Statistical Analysis
− Machine Intelligence (MI) will play an important role in the outcome of Big
Data applications.
− Statistical Techniques will guide MI Applications.
− Such tools and techniques and their applicability as Data Driven Models.
•Domain Knowledge
− Ship Dynamics/Hydrodynamics
− Automation and Navigation Systems
− Engine Propeller Combinator Diagram
- 12. Vessel Information
•A set ship performance and navigation parameters is collected from
a selected vessel.
•Bulk Carrier with following particulars:
− ship length: 225 (m),
− beam: 32.29 (m),
− Gross tonnage: 38.889 (tons),
− deadweight at max draft: 72.562 (tons).
− Powered by 2 stroke Main Engine with maximum continuous rating
(MCR) of 7564 (kW) at the shaft rotational speed of 105 (rpm).
− Fixed pitch propeller diameter 6.20 (m) with 4 blades
- 13. Ship Performance and Navigation Parameters

- 26. Parameter Selection
•Top 7 PCs Selected.
•10 Parameters => 7
Parameters.
•Preserve
approximately 99.5%
of the actual
information.
- 32. •Some advanced tools & Techniques are developed in this stage.
•Still a logway to go..
− Digital Models
