Integrated Systems

Aanderaa have made installations in ports, harbours and sailing fairways all over the world from arctic to tropical climates.

Below are some of the systems available and some examples of custom systems built for specific applications.

Hyd/Met station at Gothenburg Harbour, Sweden

Gothenburg harbour, the largest port in Scandinavia, has used Aanderaa equipment to assure safe navigation and smooth operations for more than 20 years. The systems measure meteorological and hydrological parameters on three critical locations along the main shipping lane. Data is presented in real-time to the approaching ships over AIS (message 8) and the internet as a cellphone application in the ViVa system, developed by the Swedish Navigational Authorities and included more than 100 stations.

Hyd / Met Station in Tupras Izmit Refinery, Turkey

The delivered system consists of meteorological and hydrological sensors and data logging equipment for measuring parameters that are of importance for operations in the harbour.

MOTUS Wave Buoy

Wave buoys effectively measure currents and waves in a dynamic environment is challenging

Observatories

Smart Sub Observatory is a flexible platform enabling tailor-made solutions, both with sensors from Aanderaa and other suppliers. They can be used off-the-shelf or customized to better cover application requirements.

Weather Station at Kårstø Harbour, Norway

A standard Aanderaa Weather Station(WS) is installed on an island close to the port on an existing mast structure. Here wind speed and wind gust in addition to wind direction is measured.

Sailbuoy — Autonomous Surface Vehicle

The Sailbuoy is a long endurance, wind driven Autonomous Surface Vessel (ASV). This low cost ASV solves the problem of collecting upper ocean current measurements and other oceanographic data in remote areas.
