February
2010, startup RIS
project in Serbia |
| |
| RIS Serbia
actually consists of
more contracts which
take care of the set
up of the whole RIS
infrastructure in Serbia.
This includes apart
from the entire shore
base infrastructure
also the vessels will
be equipped with AIS
transponders. These
are governmental ships
as well as private vessels.
The AIS shore based
network will be built
in 2010 along more than
400 km of the Danube
between Hungary, Croatia
at one side and Bulgaria/Rumania
on the other side. The
installation of devices
in the mountains of
the Iron Gate will require
a special treatment.
These sites are mostly
unreachable from the
outside world, so they
will be developed to
work some time autonomously.
The project RIS Serbia
is executed by Periskal
in cooperation with
SELEX Sistemi Integrati
for the services and
by Periskal together
with Spinnaker New Technologies
for the supplies. RIS
Serbia takes care of
the fundamental connection
on the Danube between
the different RIS systems
of the EU countries. |

| November
2008, Periskal wins
RIS project in France |
| |
| The
partnership Periskal
– Crup has recently
won the tender for
the setup of RIS
(River Information
Services) in Northern
France and the Seine.
The project includes
a diversity of aspects
such as the construction
of an AIS base station
network, the equipment
of approximately 20
ships, the setup of
an internet web portal,
etc. The voluminous
project must be completed
in October 2009. Various
shipping companies
such as CFT, Cemex
and private skippers
were invited to take
part into the project.
AIS and on board navigation
software are an essential
part in the project.
The various locks
on the route will
get access to the
data of the ships
e.g. position, expected
time of arrival, sizes,
etc. They will also
be able to send information
back. Different logistic
parties participate
as well in the project
in order to promote
the waterway transport.
The SIF project is
a cooperation between
VNF and the Wallonian
waterway executive.
The project is funded
by the EU within the
framework of RIS.
For the partnership
Periskal – CRUP
it is a very significant
project and a recognition
for the knowledge
of both companies
on the score of River
Information Services.
