GLEN’s Environmental Monitoring Systemsare a vital aid to safe and controlled berthing operations. By gathering oceanographical and meteorological data from sensitive sensor arrays, pilots and jetty operators can use the trend data for better and safer decision making for the berthing operation. A system built around a weather station and supported by measurements including tidal, wave, and sea currents.
As specialist manufacturers of Quick Release Hooks, Glen is an expert in all aspects of berthing and mooring applications, including the recommendation and supply of their EMS systems to support a safe berthing process
A Glen-supplied Environmental Monitoring System is built around a weather station, designed to provide common meteorological measurements, and supported by more complex oceanographical measurements that include tidal, wave and sea currents.
Weather Station meteorological measurements
Today’s weather stations are highly sophisticated devices, capable of making a wide range of measurements, while resilient enough to ensure challenging weather conditions. Weather stations offer monitoring of commonly required conditions, including precipitation, air temperature, humidity, wind velocity, wind direction, as well as the presence of rain, snow, or hail. A weather station’s compact footprint means it is easy to install on jetties, quays, or even buoys. Requiring minimal maintenance, the systems are protected from water ingress and UV radiation – making them effective in all weather conditions.
Accurate oceanographical measurements
For customers requiring more detailed, more complex measurements are available. Measurements are available for visibility
