SHIPS
MOVEMENT INFORMATION DISPLAY
SYSTEM (SMIDS) |

 |
The
Ships Movement Information Display System
(SMIDS) measures speed over ground (SOG)
at the bow and the stern of the vessel.
The SMIDS system replaces the SONAR
Doppler-docking systems with satellite
technology.
Significant savings can be made when
retrofitting an existing docking system
with SMIDS as the existing Doppler system
cables will normally be utilised hence
saving time and money. The system can
be installed without the need to Dry-dock
as it can also be fitted whilst the
ship is in transit thus avoiding operational
downtime.
LLOYDS & MED TYPE APPROVED
SMIDS conforms to IMO rules A.824 (19)
for ships speed and distance measuring
