ROV joystick steering
ROVs can be controlled using joystick with NaviSuite Mobula.
Auto-depth and auto-heading
Depth and heading are automatically calculated.

General visualisation
NaviModel and NaviPac share the same 3D engine, and therefore the same powerful 3D visualisation features. Data can be visualised in 2D, 3D, side view or by time.

3D seabed terrain
Seabed terrain can be visualised in a 3D environment.
Multiple Map Views
Multiple Map Views are available. Each individual Map View window can be configured separately to display only the information required.
Background Maps
Background Web Map Service (WMS) maps can be displayed.
Import 3D models
3D models can be imported into NaviModel (drag and drop into the Map View window).
Link 3D models to live objects
3D models can be linked to any live objects (Vessel, ROV, Scanfish etc).
2D, 3D and side-view displays
2D, 3D or Side views allows the user to quickly change the view facilitating better data interpretation.
Visibility Slider
Visibility slider allows users to compare different DTM’s quickly. This enables comparison over time or between different data processing methods.
Control colours, lights, details
DTM light and palette settings can be changed at any time.

Navigation and routes
NaviPac is an integrated navigation and data acquisition software solution that includes surface and subsea navigation, route and waypoint planning, live tracking and piloting.
Navigation and routes features
NaviPac is an integrated navigation and data acquisition software solution that includes surface and subsea navigation, route and waypoint planning, live tracking and piloting.
Live position of multiple objects
NaviPac Helmsman’s Display 4 (based on the same core as NaviModel) supports display of vehicle data (main vessel, ROV, ROTV, remotes etc) based on the NaviPac data feed. The data can be shown graphically in multiple map views.
AIS tracks
All variants of NaviPac supports integration with AIS receivers. The data is read into NaviPac and can be shown in a dedicated AIS window and overlaid in the HMD. We perform an even read and utilise vessel dimension information.
Display north-up, heading-up, route-up
Each Map View can be designed and controlled individually when it comes to content, overlays and layout. Map Views can be 2D, 3D or side-views, and orientation can be user defined, north-up, vehicle up or line up.
Manual waypoint drawing
NaviPac supports a series of runline and waypoint formats including our own RLX/WPT format, ad generic ASCII readers. You can also draw lines and points directly in the Map View.
Vehicle control panel for multiple vehicle runlines and display DOL
Assignment of lines and waypoints are handled through the dedicated Vehicle Control view, as you may control multiple vehicles simultaneously. Each controlled vehicle will be available as distance offline indicator (DOL/DCC) and various runline information (along line, target ETA etc.).
Auto-coverage runlines based on sonar
HMD 4 includes a tool for automated runline generation for MBE site surveys. Initially the surveyor defines the first runline, and then HMD will the continuously calculate the outer limit for the line based on coverage and density requirements, and thus automatically calculate the next line. This tool is very suitable e.g., for vessel mounted solution for NaviSuite Kuda or for ASV/USV operations.
Distance to waypoint
Waypoints are handled in a similar manner to runlines, as assignment of the waypoint is done in the Vehicle Control View. Hereafter, an artificial runline is created from the vehicle to the point and NaviPac monitors the range/bearing to the destination. and can a,.o. feed that into autopilots and DP systems.

Sensor interfacing and recording
Many different sensors can be interfaced and integrated in both NaviScan and NaviPac.
Sensor interfacing and recording features
Many different sensors can be interfaced and integrated in both NaviScan and NaviPac.
Surface positioning and motion (GPS, Gyro, IMU)
Setting up an entire vessel based project in NaviPac is easy performed using intuitive graphical definition tools. The video covers basic project definition, geodetics and vessel navigation setup.
Subsurface positioning (USBL, DVL, INS, Gyro, IMU)
Setting up remote and subsea vehicles is done in a similar manner to the main vessel – easy and intuitive. Adding instruments, positioning sources (transponders, INS, LBL etx) and defining weighting and Kalman filter settings is possible.
FLS - forward looking sonar (wedge and mosaic)
NaviScan supports a series of forward looking sonars such as eg. Tritech, Didson and Norbit. The data will be interfaced and recorded in NaviScan and made available for display in HMD as both stand-alone wedge display and 3D wedge display in the Map views.
MBE multi-beam echo sounder (soundings and DTM)
Multi-beam echo sounder, laser and sidescan will be interfaced and recorded in NaviScan. Display and quality control is easily done in HMD by using raw point clouds, terrain models or data profiles. Using multiple windows allows for QC by looking at data density, model standard deviation etc. Built in semi-automatic cleaning tool enables instant delivery or preliminary DTM.

Eventing
The many eventing features include auto-calculation of event types and an easy-to-use event tablet view.
Eventing features
The many eventing features include auto-calculation of event types and an easy-to-use event tablet view.
Configurable event types, hierarchy, and properties
Client and company specific event collections can be tailored to the activity undertaken.
During EIVA Days Denmark 2018, we presented a major expansion to the functionality of camera based scanning.
Create events
Events can be created quickly and are automatically placed onto a DTM.
Tablet for fast event creation
Using the eventing tablet view allows for quicker event creation. With the eventing tablet, you can quickly add all events, or customise which events to add with just a few steps.
Create freespan and burial events
Pipe and seabed markers are used to create freespan and burial events.
This means that events and seabed markers always tie-in.
Recalculate events
Events can be recalculated at any time.
Export events
User configurable templates can be created to export events in the format required.
Export nearest image and videos
Images and videos can be exported for each event or for selected events.
Create pipetracker gap events
Pipetracker gap events are created from continuous sections of rejected pipetracker data.

Videos and images
Video and still images that contain time stamps can be combined with other data sources in NaviModel.
Videos and images features
Video and still images that contain time stamps can be combined with other data sources in NaviModel.
Drape images on digitised pipe
Video images can be wrapped around an existing pipe or digitised line in the Map View window.
Play and control video
Digital video acquired in external systems can be played and controlled inside NaviModel.
Synchronise video with track
In NaviModel the track contains the date and time and must be synchronised with the video time to enable videos to play.
Normally the video time and track time are recorded in the same time zone. However sometimes this is not the case and we need the option to change the video / track time so that video will play.
Adjust video hue, brightness, contrast and gamma levels
Hue, brightness, contrast and gamma levels can be adjusted to improve badly lit videos.
Display video images (Waterfall)
Video images can be displayed as a vertical waterfall.
