New Voyager Planning Station

Global Navigation Solutions (‘GNS’), the maritime services group, today launches its new version of Voyager Planning Station (‘VPS’), which moves GNS Voyager closer to the goal of becoming the industry standard for digital navigation systems.

The latest version of VPS has been enhanced to make it easier to use with popular third party solutions including Applied Weather Technology (‘AWT’) weather routing software and SAM Electronics ECDIS.

The link with Applied Weather Technology allows customers to exchange files between GNS Voyager and the AWT Bon Voyage software to optimise routes for weather and tides. In the case of SAM Electronics ECDIS, this has enhanced compatibility with GNS Voyager, enabling routes to be created in VPS and then loaded into the SAM ECDIS route file format without manual re-keying. This latest version of Voyager also includes the extension of Voyager’s updating services to include Admiralty Digital Radio Signals titles that were released by the UKHO earlier this year, enhancements to Voyager weekly update process to make it even easier to manage paper and digital chart corrections and access to Voyager Instant Permit which enables vessels to get on board access to global ENCs usually within 10 minutes of making a request.

Voyager Planning Station is becoming the industry standard for digital navigation system incorporating:

Our 15 years of experience in assisting shipping companies around the world;
The most extensive technical support in the market;
Support staff available 24/7 across the world;
Solutions to help customers manage ENCs in a more efficient structure; and
More ways than any other company to purchase and manage chart and publication inventory
Since 2012 GNS has brought together 10 distinct companies through a series of acquisitions, and has created a single group with a vision to be the best in the industry and a global network which spans the globe including the UK, Germany, Greece, Singapore, China, Australia and the US.

With effect from January 2016 all the group companies will work solely under the GNS brand, bringing together all 275 employees in all GNS locations.

Paul Stanley, Chief Executive of GNS commented: “It gives me huge pride that GNS supplies more charts and publications to more vessels than anyone else in the world. We are also proud to be at the forefront of the maritime industry’s move to digital navigation.”
