Port of Vitória to Install Modern Navigation System

Companhia Docas do Espirito Santo (CODESA) will implement a new control and monitoring system for vessel traffic in the Port of Vitória: Navi-Harbor 4.6 3D, a cutting-edge software used in more than 300 ports worldwide. Designed to ensure maritime safety and navigation efficiency in addition to protecting the marine environment and coastal areas from adverse effects of maritime traffic, Navi-Harbor is being installed at the operations control center of the vessel traffic management information system (VTMIS) at the Port of Vitória, and will begin functioning by December.

One of the most advanced features of Navi-Harbor is VTS/3D, which permits a full-scale, three-dimensional view of the navigation situation. Based on real-time data, the tool allows the operator to observe the navigation situation from a variety of different angles.

Currently, the Port of Vitória uses Indra’s Imare software, which from now on will only be used in cases of operating system emergencies. Implemented in 2017, CODESA’s VTMIS covers the Port of Vitória, the Port Complex of Tubarão and Praia Mole, access channels, anchorage areas, and adjacent areas. The management coordinator of CODESA’s VTS is Agostinho Sobral Sampaio.
