List of Wishes for future development of IWRAP

Topics raised at the IWRAP Training Seminar February 2010


Topics raised at the IWRAP Training Seminar in SYdney 2012

  • Normalized result (Grounding frequency pr. sailed nm (i.e. Sum of length of all legs multiplied with number of passages)
  • Add UNIX timestamps as an option
  • ToYear multiplication factor should be derived from the relevant part of the AIS dataset only. i.e. one could import a dataset covering a very large area, but ones model will only be in one corner of the area. The ToYear factor should only be based on the data from a rectangle enclosing the model (all the legs of the model)
  • Solve the Frequent Ferry Problem (number of vessels on a leg compared to number of passages)
  • Make it possible to select certain parts of the AIS dataaset for an analysis (graphically)
  • Legends on density plot
  • Display leg length when it is being drawn
  • One dialog box for all transparency controls
  • Enhance seasonal variation analysis - Indicate sailed distance as function of time in a dataset.
  • AIS Stream recording facility to gather data for IWRAP analysis.
  • Near miss detection based on
  • Auto detect need for splitting legs up due to SOG and/or lateral distribution variation

High Priority

  • Absolute chart scale.
  • Possible to display the location of historical groundings and collisions including text details of incident.
  • Causation reduction factor change overview.
  • Model modification report, e.g. list causation changes.
  • Plugin framework, causation factor, display overlay and more.
  • Automatic report generator

Medium priority

  • Change job names or add comments to jobs after they have been completed
  • Ranked list of collisions and groundings results, enable jump to leg, ground, waypoint in geographic result view (High Priority)

If a distribution contains a large spread of headings, the leg should be divided into two or even several shorter legs, or possibly even a set of crossing legs.(Done OFE/2012)
