Maritime Traffic Engineering specialize in all maritime developments, safety of ship traffic, off-shore and on-shore construction safety, and many other concerning open and restricted waters with use of latest technology (simulators, tools etc). Whole range of possible implementation of research in marine traffic engineering includes:
supporting the design process of ports, quays, marinas
changes in the existing ports
design of specialized terminals and their equipment,
selection of channels approach, turning basins, quays and other
analysis of dynamic conditions (wind, wave, current) and their impacts on hydro structures and ships
probabilistic modeling of vessels behavior
marine systems risk analysi
risk management - systems developing and implementation
Experience:
We carried out over 200 scientific and research works, most of them ended in specific implementations. Institute's recent achievements are the work associated with the development and practical application of navigational risk assessment methods. List of selected worksimplemented in practice- LINK.
Tools design and developed by our research team are used - including the unique simulators and the latest technology.

Implementations
We can design and create any system on parameters required by the user:
developing systems to enhance safety of navigation, such as pilot navigation systems (PNS)
applications using electronic charts, prediction of the ship position, systems positioning and presentation of the ship as an area of water plane;
applications based on web interfaces (www), API (Windows) or Linux.
marine GIS systems for traffic monitoring based on GPS technology, GSM and AIS;
designand construction of anti-collision systems on restricted water areas;
method of GPS, DGPS and RTK for precise examination of the actual maneuvers of ships in ports, canals and open water and determining the parameters of ship maneuvering;
geodeticoptoelectronic measuring methods for determining the vessels position on the waterways;
close range photogrammetry methods to characterize vessel traffic
