AirNav ShipTrax - Something Totally New

(1/8) > >>

AirNav Development:
We are in the final stages of the development of "AirNav ShipTrax". It is a completely new application from AirNav Systems which marks our entrance into the Marine market.

Instead of ADS-B signals (as with RadarBox) it receives AIS signals (ship auto position messages). It includes an worldwide ship location network and a database with over 120 thousand ship details.

The application is very similar to AirNav RadarBox 2007 with the already well known superior interface.

First Public Screen Shot is below.
Hope you enjoy it. We are totally open for any possible suggestions.

Does this include an AIS type receiver in the package? Many of us who use a similar programme from another source already have our own dedicated AIS receivers.
It sounds fantastic if the software package can be purchased on its own!
Although I may be sited 15 miles inland I get good coverage of Harwich and its approaches so if you require any Beta testers in the field, my set up will stretch it as it did with RB!

Peter:
I would like to be able to import my own maps and delete your charts if you are going to use the "approximate" map as in RB. It would be very unrealistic for ships to sail over dry land on harbour approaches which I'm sure will happen if the RB type of connected straight line drawing was used. A link to Earth Browser would be a great help.

AirNav Development:
We confim that AirNav ShipTrax is the software only. It is already compatible with NASA Marine AIS or any other NMEA output device. You can even opt to receive data from a TCP/IP connection. So the answer is that the user may opt to buy the software only or the software+hardware if needed.

Regarding maps adding previously created: we have sent a personal message to Peter and waiting for a reply. More suggestions are welcome.

DaveG:
very interesting, have tried other ship tracking software but did not get along with it at the time.  Can you clarify when you say "receive data from a tcp/ip connection" does this mean from your own hardware or a network system that will be available if you have no hardware?
