Product catalog summary
Overview
The Integrated Positioning System (IPS) is a PC-based software designed for tracking and navigation of surface vessels and multiple submerged targets such as AUVs, ROVs, and submersibles. It integrates with ORE acoustic tracking systems, GPS, heading sensors, and motion sensors to determine and display the position of submerged targets relative to a support vessel.
Applications
  • ROV tracking with Doppler Velocity Log (DVL) navigation support
  • Manned submersible tracking
  • UUV/AUV tracking with acoustic modem support
  • Survey and towfish tracking
  • Initial site location and pipeline surveys
Key Specifications
  • Graphical user interface with 3D sensor calibration
  • Multiple display modes including GIS layers and various coordinate systems
  • Supports a wide range of vector and image formats with geo-referencing
  • UTC time synchronization and geodetic conversion utility
  • Data output formats compatible with other systems
  • Real-time and post-processing data filtering with Kalman filtering
  • Doppler Velocity Log-based navigation support
PC Requirements
  • Processor: Pentium or higher (800 MHz)
  • OS: Windows 98SE / ME / W2k / XP
  • Minimum 256 MB RAM
  • Screen resolution: 1024 x 768
  • RS-232 serial port or USB/Ethernet for connection

IPS_INTEGRATED POSITIONING SYSTEM (SOFTWARE) ill APPLICATIONS • ROV tracking including support for Doppler Velocity Log (DVL) based navigation • Manned Submersible Tracking including DVL based navigation • UUV/AUV tracking including Acoustic modem support • Survey / Towfish Tracking • Initial site Location • Pipeline Survey The Integrated Positioning System (IPS) is a PC based software package specifically designed for tracking and navigation of a surface vessel and multiple submerged targets (e.g. AUV, ROV, submersible, tow fish, diver etc). The IPS software supports the integration of an ORE acoustic tracking system (TrackPoint 3, 3P, TrackPoint II Plus, or LXT), a ship's GPS, heading sensor (magnetic, gyrocompass, GPS- Gyro) and, if available, a motion sensor (VRU, AHRS). The position of the submerged targets relative to the support vessel is determined by an ORE TrackPoint or LXT system and sent to a PC via an RS-232 or Ethernet link. The actual position (latitude/longitude/depth) of the submerged target is then calculated based upon the range and true bearing relative to the ship's position as supplied by a GPS receiver. The results are then graphically displayed on the PC. The data may be stored and retrieved for later processing. For more information please visit ORE.com [email protected] | USA 1.508.291.0960
