    Increased precision of data

    ... through the EIVA ATTU time-tagging unit

    As NaviSuite Kuda supports standard vessel navigation equipment such as GPSs, motion reference units (MRUs) and INSs, you are ensured a high precision of your data – a very high precision, if desired, by adding the certified EIVA ATTU time-tagging unit as an optional extra to your NaviSuite Kuda setup. The EIVA ATTU offers a time-tagging accuracy better than 50 µSec, which is far superior to what can be obtained through the use of the standard clock of an ordinary computer.

    Learn more

    Navigation and routes features

    Navigation and data acquisition are integrated in this software solution. Efficiently and easily navigate surface and subsea vessels using intuitive tools to plan routes and waypoints, track or pilot a vessel and more.

    Display live position of a vehicle

    NaviSuite supports display of vehicle data based on the NaviPac data feed. You can display the main vessel along with one subsea vehicle, such as an ROV or ROTV, on an unlimited number of local and remote displays. The data can be shown graphically in multiple map views.

    Live position of multiple objects

    AIS tracks

    NaviSuite supports integration with AIS receivers. The data can be shown in a dedicated AIS window and overlaid in the NaviPac window. You can perform, read and utilise vessel dimension information.

    AIS tracks

    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.

    Display north-up, heading-up, route-up

    Manual waypoint drawing

    NaviSuite 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.

    Manual waypoint drawing

    Various runline patterns (parallel, cross, star)

    You can inherit multiple lines based on the base line defined, such as parallel or cross lines to get an optimal route plan.

    Various runline patterns (parallel, cross, star)

    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).

    Vehicle control panel for multiple vehicle runlines and display DOL

    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.

    Distance to waypoint

    Multi-object live range/bearing

    In NaviSuite, you may pair live vessels and monitor the range/bearings between them for online display as live data and range information on Map Views.

    Multi-object live range/bearing

    Auto-pilot (NMEA) control

    When using runlines and waypoints you may connect NaviPac to autopilot systems using e.g., standard NMEA formats and pass cross-track error and destination waypoints on to the equipment.

    Auto-pilot (NMEA) control

    DataUnits

    NaviSuite supports use of other data units in addition to metric. The unit is selected in the project settings and all definition fields are then assumed to be in the selected data unit. 
    NaviSuite will follow the selected data unit, but you may, by using a simple keystroke, toggle between metric and data unit if required.
    Data recording will still be metric to guarantee data integrity, but data outputs can be selected freely.

    Sub-bottom profiler (SBP)

    You are able to work with several SEG-Y files in NaviSuite at the same time. When loading the sub-bottom profiling data, the software extracts a rough track that is then taken through a two-step process of extracting a point every 100 metres, and then refined to 3 metres.

    SBP sub-bottom profiler

    Change offsets, C-O's and mounting angles

    Sometimes incorrect measured offsets, C-O’s or mounting angles are entered into the online acquisition system. NaviSuite enables you to correct these errors.

    Change offsets, C-O's and mounting angles

    Raybending corrections

    Sometimes Sound Velocity values are incorrect and we need a tool to perform a local correction. In NaviSuite, we can visualise the Sound Velocity corrections before we apply them.

    Point cloud features

    We can create point clouds from sonar and laser systems or from historical XYZ files. Within NaviModel, there are many ways to visualise, edit and optimise point data.

    Import XYZ files

    You can easily model historical data in NaviSuite Kuda and use it for example to plan your survey or compare your results with earlier observations. If you have data in a known format, such as generic ASCII XYZ files, these can be imported as DTMs, point clouds, or TIN models.

    Import XYZ files

    Point clouds with RGB and Intensity

    By default, point clouds can be visualised as a solid colour or as a depth palette. However, if source files contain RGB or Intensity values, we can choose to colour the point cloud with this information instead.

    Import LAS files and display as RGB or Intensity

    LAS and LAZ files can be imported as DTMs or as point clouds, meaning you can use NaviSuite’s powerful modelling capabilities for validating data in this format. You can also export your model to this format.

    Point Cloud Registration (QuickStitch)

    If point clouds are misaligned, we can use Point Cloud Registration to align them. We accomplish this by first digitising common features, and then performing a least-squared adjustment that moves one point cloud to another.

    Automatic processing features

    The NaviSuite Workflow Manager tool is designed to enable a previously unseen degree of automatic data processing of massive amounts of subsea sensor data.

    AUV processing workflow

    The first version of the Workflow Manager utilises NaviEdit and NaviModel for a traditional survey data set processing of data from AUV dive. As soon as the data is available, it is automatically loaded into the flow and processed by cleaning data, merging reprocessed AUV track, building DTMs and making sanity checks. This is typically done using the Server version.

    AUV processing workflow

    NaviSuite Kuda processing workflow

    The Workflow Manager desktop version is very well suited for NaviSuite Kuda operations where each file will be processed right after recording, thus enabling reporting and quality control as you go. The Desktop version runs one task at the time – but it is more than fast enough to cope with survey speed.

    NaviSuite Kuda processing workflow

    Execute multiple parallel NaviEdit, NaviModel and 3rd party commands

    The more CPU (cores), memory and disk speed you have – the better you utilise the workflow engine. The optimal solution is running a bit fewer processes than the number of cores.
