Cloud platform boosts efficiency

Marine electronics firm Actisense has launched free-to-use platform ActisenseCloud to help boaters, service agents and fleet managers to analyse and troubleshoot NMEA data from their onboard electronics network, with the aim of making journeys safer and more efficient.

Actisense CEO, Phil Whitehurst, said: “Our vision has always been to help our customers understand the data that’s most important to them, wherever they are. Our customers have told us that they wanted to be able to measure NMEA 2000 data over time, such as fuel consumption over various speeds, for example. The power of the ActisenseCloud means that users can log all of their boating electronics data in one convenient place and analyse and troubleshoot their individual activity.”

Managing and analysing data

ActisenseCloud harnesses the power of cloud computing and gives users the ability to upload EBL log files from any NMEA 2000 network and to easily view data from all available PGNs online.

Users are also able download these in common formats such as Excel, as well as formats such as GPX and KML, which allows users to then plot their journeys over time on Google Maps and Google Earth.

Customers can also make use of the Actisense W2K-1 NMEA 2000 WiFi Gateway as the simplest way to automatically get data from their boat to the ActisenseCloud.

Connect with Actisesnse at Seawork Connect from 5th to 7th October.
