New navigation software for workboats
CEACT stands for Channel ECDIS, AIS & Course Trajectory and is navigation software that is specifically designed for professional towboats and workboat operations within the confined waterways of the US inland river system.
SevenCs GmbH is a Hamburg based software house that develops software for the maritime navigation industry. Its key products include the EC2007 ECDIS Kernel, used by OEMs around the world for navigationally correct chart display, ENC digital chart production tools used by hydrographic offices and other chart producers, plus ECS navigation software for specialist applications, such as portable pilot units and CEACT.
CEACT improves operational efficiency and situational awareness with all information needed to safely navigate. The new CEACT version 2.6.10 is now available and comes with many improvements. It introduces a modernized user interface for enhanced readability in all ambient conditions, and more user friendliness in general. It helps the river pilot to safely navigate and focus on the most relevant data, which helps preventing accidents.
Advanced chart rendering allows faster loading and display of the respective chart, which remarkably optimizes the application. Users will also benefit from the fully automatic CPA function which includes different types of calculation for rivers, channels and offshore. With extended support of BSB charts, including head-up display, CEACT becomes more powerful in remote areas not yet covered by ENCs.
