The Grimaldi Satellite Autonomous Berthing (GSAB) project, funded by the European Space Agency’s NAVISP program, has developed a system enabling automatic, high-precision port berthing operations in large (200m) carrier ships. The system provides ships’ captains and crew with an overview of ship conditions in real time in port settings, including detailed information on maneuvering operations to be performed.
