Description

Integrated information provision system {Integrated information provision system}

The present invention relates to an integrated information providing system, and more particularly, to an integrated information providing system capable of providing marine environment information matching the requirements of various users to existing light buoys that display obstacles and indicate routes. .

In general, a vessel passing through a route for entering the inner port of a port or a vessel passing through a waterway in a special sea area with low water depth has to navigate along a narrow and winding route or waterway, so there is a risk of stranding, especially at night Identification of waterways becomes more difficult, increasing the risk.

Moreover, due to the urbanization of ports, the identification of sea routes or waterways can be hindered as flashy lights such as neon signs obscure sailors' vision.

In order to prevent this danger, navigation aid facilities arranged at regular intervals along the route or waterway to help the ship navigate safely by making it easy to identify the route or waterway even at night are used, and lighted buoys are used. is a representative example.

A navigation aid facility is a device that marks the route within the control waters of a port. It is equipped with high-end equipment such as a radio reflector, lantern, and solar panel to perform the same role as a maritime traffic light. It is connected to a fixed object by a chain or the like and is located within a limited range of sea level.

However, conventional navigation aid facilities have a problem of poor usability by performing only a role such as a simple traffic light.
