The Navigation Data Management Center is a customized approach tailored to specific applications and customer needs. Like a spider in the web, the system assembles data from various sources, pre-processes them in real time as necessary and distributes them to various end users. Data handling ranges from different navigational and other sensor data to decision aids for operational and tactical purposes. This requires a clear separation of tactical, navigational and technical tasks.
Typical interfaces to sensors and systems include:
- Combat management system, sonar and weapon control
- Surface sensors (radar, optronics etc.)
- Navigation sensors
- Nav/Cdr Console External communication
- Ship’s automation and platform management
- Display and control units
