Approval for Inland AIS28/08/2008 |
| Saab TransponderTech's R4 Inland Automatic Identification System (IAIS) has received type approval from Fachstelle der WSV für Verkehrstechniken to meet the new requirements for operation on European waterways. |
|
The R4 IAIS is based on Saab's Class-A AIS transponder hardware and software with important enhancements for inland navigation requirements. In addition to standard AIS messages, the IAIS broadcasts information such as Blue Sign status for upstream or downstream navigation; hazardous cargo carriage (Blue Cones); and estimated time of arrival at locks, bridges and terminals. Vessel draft is transmitted with centimeter-level accuracy. The system also displays data such as water levels and recommended time of arrival transmitted from shore AIS base stations.
