Uses the vessel's existing X-band radar to detect and track ice, including leads, ridges, icebergs, bergy bits and growlers.

Description

sigma S6 Ice Navigator™ uses a vessel's existing X-band radar to detect and track ice. It identifies open water leads, icebergs and ridges in ice fields, and detects bergy bits and growlers that a navigation radar's own processor may miss, as well as large ice hazards at longer ranges.

Key features

  • Advanced Ice Analysis distinguishing leads, ridges and embedded icebergs
  • Detection of small ice hazards such as bergy bits and growlers
  • Optional Sea Ice Drift Analysis showing floe direction and speed
  • Works with existing X-band navigation radar

Applications

Ice defence, ice breaking, route planning in ice, adventure tourism and port access for ice-class fleets.
