Abstract

This invention provides a position monitoring system for a vessel having a vessel control system. The system has a plurality of electromagnetic sensors (2) arranged at intervals substantially around the perimeter of the vessel for detecting objects (40, 42, 52) in the proximity of the vessel. A central processing unit (4) communicates with the sensors (2) and determines the position of any objects in the proximity of the vessel. The central processing unit (4) has a memory (18) associated with it that contains data defining at least one detection zone (20, 30) adjacent or proximate to the vessel. The central processing unit (4) is programmed to, upon detection that the sensors (2) have sensed an object in any one of said at least one detection zones (28, 30), output a signal to at least one of an alarm system and the vessel control system (10).
