Navigation Data Distribution System (NDDS)

Having high performance sensors is key to ensuring a vessel’s operability and survivability. The data collected through these sensors need to be processed, monitored, and distributed to the ship’s systems. This is where Netans NDDS comes into action.

Netans acquires controls and processes all navigation sensors data and distributes the consolidated navigation information to the external systems. Netans acts as a consistent common reference system which will ensure that all parts of the system run with the same navigation data.

Enhance your Navigation’s Safety

Improved Data Availability

Tailor-made Solution for your Vessels

Evolutive Solution (HW&FW)

Highly Scalable Hardware and Software

The Netans range goes from N1 to N7 with modular hardware capacities. This leads to multiple interfaces capacities matching all required vessel architectures (customizable). On top of the interface type, Netans can adapt to any protocols to be received from a sensor or to be sent to a subscriber of the data (Protocol conversion). Both the hardware flexibility and the customization lead to a tailor-made product for any application.

Certified Data through Three-steps Qualification System

Validity: check the data is conformed to specified criteria
Integrity: comparison between data
Plausibility: coherency with data type

Cybersecured Solution

Netans is designed to meet the most advanced and demanding Navigation system’s needs. This includes a cybersecure approach of the data distribution. To protect navigation system against cyberattacks, the NDDS can work as barrier for the entire navigation suits:

Detect and alert on anomaly on sensor data
Detect and alert on anomaly on network stream
Use last standards in Cyber recommendations
- Network protection with VLAN
- Secured OS
- Ethernet Packet filtering
- ANSSI recommendations
- DGA recommendations

Sea-Proven in Top-ranking Navies

Intuitive and User-friendly Interface

Ideal Solution for Retrofits

While all the product range benefits from the same software and enhanced development, the smaller versions of Netans (N1 and N3) are handy for specific applications like sensor retrofit, light protocol conversion or = signal multiplication. Netans N3 has been successfully deployed for INS retrofit multiple times. Netans N1 and Netans N3 can be supplied in a more COTS approach.
