Maritime Industry
The maritime industry is perhaps the most international of all the world's great industries - and one of the most dangerous. Throughout history, piracy has been a major concern, not to mention distress at sea. ROAM enables ship owners not only to monitor their vessels but also to meet the SOLAS requirement by the International Maritime Organization.

The UAE’s strategic geographic location for instance has historically and presently made it a key stopover point for vessels. Moreover, 70% of the world’s crude vessels pass through the Persian Gulf. This has resulted in many shipping companies calling UAE home. Along with the completion of the Maritime City, we believe that there will be further increase in marine traffic.

Features
  • Track vessels’ location anytime anywhere in the world with a click of a button real time via satellite
  • Setup geofences to define points of interest (port entry, troubled waters, restricted waters)
  • The various standard report provides you with summary of multiple activities for a specified period. For example: estimated time of arrival variance, non-reported stops at sea, distance traveled by each vessel
  • Integrate with existing navigational and communications systems on-board
  • Monitor fluid levels in tankers with Cathodic Protection
Benefits
  • Eliminate dependence on crew to make contact
  • Eliminate need to dial-in to INMARSAT for getting data which OmnitTrack can provide for 1/10th the price
  • Mitigate false information from pilots about their whereabouts and eliminate the possibilities of total ‘radio silence’, variations in trips planned and monitor passage to/through no-go zones
  • When a user-defined event violation occurs in a vessel (e.g. non-report, unplanned stop by fuel tankers, variation in ETA estimations) the system will notify the appointee. The appointee can then take immediate corrective action and avoid potentially huge costs
  • Monitor movements of special cargos (e.g. explosives) from commencement of trip to destination in order to ensure safe passage
  • Ensure rescue with the aid of panic button
  • Efficiently manage co-ordination of cargo handling prior to arrival
