One vessel stops moving in the middle of the ocean due to bad weather.

The captain tends to


stop the ship from propelling to avoid further accidents caused by strong wind and waves. They wait for
several hours, but still, the condition of the ocean doesn't change that's why they cannot propel the ship
even if they want to. At that moment, the captain realized they wouldn't make the deadline at the port,
so he used radio communication equipment to notify the ship's owner on land, avoiding his crew from
being blamed for the mishap. That's why communication in open waters provided by I.T devices is one
of the key factors that help create and maintain a safe environment on and around your vessel. It assists
us in maintaining land communication as well as providing updates to our clients for better
understanding.

In the middle of the night, a passenger ship was sailing through the icy waters of the Atlantic
Ocean. At the same time, passengers on the ship were just simply having a good time and enjoying their
short staycation on the trip. Little didn't know they were about to see the greatest nightmare of their
lives as the ship they were traveling hit a rocky portion of the ocean and the water started to flow inside.
As the water entering the ship rises at a rapid speed, people begin to panic. Luckily, due to advanced
technology devices and satellites, the captain easily contacted the coast guard for an emergency rescue
operation on the ship. A well-connected information exchange system developed by I.T. will help to
prevent maritime mishaps and improve ship coordination. In an emergency, the system can allow quick
information exchange to assist in reaching the ships.

The MV Mariana vessel arrives in Panama's port to pick up some huge intermodal containers
and products from its client. Seeing those seafarers and mariners to carry those intermodal containers
and goods is very hard to see and unimaginable. As a result, the seamen on that ship employ different
modern devices such as automatic cranes and lifting devices to transport their goods from port to ship.
The seamen on that ship are only in charge of monitoring and controlling the devices, which makes their
jobs easier and safer. Aside from that, it has the potential to speed up their job, avoiding delays and
complications to happen. Faster cargo handling is one of the benefits of IT In the Maritime Industry since
it provides several technologies that might assist sailors in speeding up their work.

On one sunny day, there was a particular ship traveling in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The
deck officers on that ship are concerned that they will not be able to deliver the cargo on time due to
different instances on their voyage. Luckily, one officer in the deck department detects a particular
shortcut route from his GPS and AIS device. Other crews from the deck department evaluate the data
presented by the devices and later on agrees to re-route their waypoints to enable them to travel faster.
Due to their re-routing, they were able to ship their cargoes on time. Navigation technology has become
increasingly reliant on information technology that have resulted in the reduction of human error in
transmission and a significant increase in efficiency.
