Electronic Chart Display and Information Systems (ECDIS) centralize navigation by integrating electronic charts, plotted routes, identified hazards, and real-time sensor data into a comprehensive, dynamic platform accessible on the ship’s bridge. Supporting decision-making, alarm management, and real-time situational awareness, ECDIS is indispensable to modern bridge operations—ensuring safe navigation, route optimization, compliance with IMO standards for electronic chart corrections, and integration with radar and navigation networks.
