In the decade since its launch, NAVTOR has continued to refine its software to improve efficiency. “The trouble on board of ordering charts and handling licences suddenly disappeared,” Bjørn Åge Hjøllo, NAVTOR co-founder and chief business development officer for e-navigation, explains. NAVTOR’s vessel tracking technology monitors the ship’s path and charges only for cells that the vessel enters during its voyage. Widely used today, the solution helped to remove deficiencies in voyage planning by making all charts free of charge. Electronic navigation (e-navigation) solution provider NAVTOR pioneered Pay As You Sail (PAYS) in 2011, shortly before the International Maritime Organisation’s Electronic Chart Display and Information System (ECDIS) mandate kick-started the shipping industry’s transition to digital navigation.
