The operation of the integrated apparatus for analyzing the marine environment data will be described in detail as follows.

First, when the ship starts to operate, the weather / ocean information acquisition unit 101 acquires the weather information of the ship at which the ship is currently located. The weather / ocean information acquisition unit 101 may include a barometer, weather vane, thermometer, hygrometer, temperature gauge, DGPS, gyro compass, Obtain ocean weather and various marine information by using wave / wave system. And transmits the acquired ocean weather information and ocean information to the ocean weather information analysis means 120.

Here, the satellite weather information is weather information which is served on a daily basis.

The data acquisition module 106 of the ocean weather information analysis unit 120 verifies whether the received ocean weather information is received in the correct data format through the data transmitting / receiving unit 106a, do. If the verification result is not transmitted in the correct data format or is unreliable ocean weather information due to an error, discard the received ocean weather information. In contrast, if the received marine weather information is transmitted in the correct data format and the marine weather information is reliable, the marine weather information is transmitted to the marine weather information analysis module 105.

Since the satellite weather information received through the actual satellite is the ocean weather information received every one day, it may be different from the ocean weather information corresponding to the current position of the ship.

This difference in weather information causes errors in setting up the economic navigation route.

Therefore, in order to solve errors that occur when setting up the economic navigation route, to acquire the ocean weather information of the accurate vessel position, and to transmit and share the accurate ocean weather information to other vessels operating on the same route in real time, The analysis module 105 verifies the satellite weather information.

For example, the ocean weather information analysis unit 105a analyzes the satellite weather information received daily through the data transmission / reception unit 111 and the ocean weather information of the current ship position acquired in real time through the weather / Compare the information. If the comparison results in an error, the satellite weather information received is corrected using the ocean weather information error value. The corrected marine weather information is used as basic information for setting the economic navigation route.

On the other hand, the ocean weather information analysis unit 105a compares the ocean weather information with the ocean weather information directly obtained from the ship, and transmits the generated ocean weather information error value through the communication unit 105b, And transmits it to the receiving unit 111.

The data transmission / reception unit 111 transmits the marine weather information error value to the land-based system 200.

Similarly to the ship system 100, the land-based system 200 compares ocean meteorological information received through various routes with ocean meteorological information transmitted from a ship, and verifies the received ocean meteorological information. If the verification results in an error that may affect the route information, it receives the marine weather information of other vessels operating the route similar to the one that transmitted the marine weather information. Then, we compile the nowcast of the route and compare the nowcast with the satellite weather information to see if the difference occurs. If there is a difference, the ship will send the nowcast and forecast to the ship so that it can correct the ocean weather information.

The nowcast and forecast transmitted from the land-based system 200 are received through the data transmission / reception unit 111 of the ship system 100 and then transmitted to the ocean weather information analysis means 120.

The ocean weather information analyzing means 120 is used to correct the ocean weather information based on the ocean weather information transmitted from the land-based system 200. Here nowcast is the ocean weather information obtained from each ship. Thus, a ship operating on a similar route will transmit the ocean weather information acquired by the ship to another ship, and receive the ocean weather information acquired from another ship. Therefore, all ships operating on the similar route can share the maritime weather information of the nearby vessels, so that accurate ocean weather information can be obtained, and the marine weather information received from the surrounding vessels can be used for safe navigation have. It can also be used to set up economic navigation routes using accurate ocean weather information.

As another feature of the present invention, it is possible to perform real-time monitoring and management of equipment.

For example, the equipment monitoring and management unit 105c confirms whether there is an abnormality in each of the meteorological and marine information acquisition sensors provided in the meteorological / marine information acquisition unit 101 in real time. The abnormality check of the sensors analyzes the signal, data and frequency of the sensor to determine whether the sensor is normal or faulty. In addition, the equipment monitoring and management unit 105c real-time monitors the amount of data generated during the operation of the ship, the satellite usage, etc., notifies the user of the target, and analyzes the usage amount per viewpoint. The analysis result is displayed through the output unit 105d. This makes it easy for the administrator to easily check the amount of data that occurs during ship operation or sensors that have failed in the measurement sensor.

Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, it is needless to say that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications may be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

The present invention is applied to a technique for verifying satellite weather information received through a satellite from a ship, securing accurate ocean weather information, and transmitting and sharing ocean weather information to other ships operating on similar routes.
