Ship Monitoring And Management Information Systems Development And Research

The geographic information system (GIS) is one kind of gathering, the memory, the management, the analysis, the demonstration and the application geography information computer system, is the analysis and the processing magnanimous geography data general technology.It has obtained the astonishing development in the recent 30 years, and widely applies in domains and so on resources investigation, environment appraisal, region development plan, public utility management, traffic safety, becomes an interdisciplinary, the multi-direction research area.Our country GIS development was late, has experienced four stages, namely will start (1970-1980), prepares (1980-1985), to develop (1985-1995), the industrial production (1996 later) the stage. In recent years, along with our country economy fast development, the GIS application advancement unceasingly sped up, in domains and so on region management, transportation, mapping, environmental protection, agriculture and charting sent has impeached the vital role, has obtained the good economic efficiency and the social efficiency. GIS divides into three kind of types generally: (1) nationwide system ensemble. It is take a country as its research and the analysis object system, like Japan"the national territory information system", Canada"the national geographic information system"and so on, all is according to the national unification standard, the storage including the physical geography and the social economy essential factor comprehensive information, provides the advisory service for the nation.(2) regional information system.It is take some area as its research and the analysis object system, like Sweden Stockholm area information system. (3) special subject information system. It is take some specialty, the question or the object as the primary coverage system, also is the development are most, the most universal system, like US's earthquake analyzes the system, France's geophysics information system and so on.The System is built on past achievements of existing hardware, software and communication equipments, and made full use of many high technologies, such as computer network, database, equipments interconnection, information standardization, real-time date analysis and GSM etc. All of this constitutes this system– SLSM(Ship Locating by Short Message) Management Information System. It makes many of clients and departments of the company can get the information of the ship they hired via send a sample short message with their cellphone at any place any time, they can query all kinds of information they needed. The system include GPS interface, SMS send-receive interface, SMS send-receive, SMS group send, geographical names reGISter, hardware errors report, operator managerment, operator rights, client information management, query SMS statistics etc.The system structured with Client/Server, operation system used Microsoft Windows 2003 Server enterprise edition, database adopted Microsoft SQL Server 2000, and realized software modulization. It can be disposed and composed differently according to the different needs, and by this way, this technology makes the application possesses higher performance and works more reliable. These characteristics of the system highly improved efficiency of management and figure of the company, and from software operating aspect, it makes work much simple, more conveniently, and more lowwer requirements for the workers. The system indeed realized so-called"What You See What You Get".
