Requirements

The legacy system for tracking boats heading to or from a base involved paper-based spreadsheets, which were then migrated into Excel-based spreadsheets. We created a custom software solution for Swantrack in the form of a web-based tracking system. Now, when a boat departed one base, the arrival base would see it pop up on their arrivals screen immediately, reducing radio traffic between bases by about 90%. Overdue vessels received SMS and email alerts, as well as status colour changes. A GPS tracking device for each boat was prototyped and then integrated into the system to provide a real-time tracking map of all vessels.
