Description: Global climate targets, stricter emissions regulations and emissions trading mean that reported emissions data must be validated. In a highly complex model, specifically one which includes individual ships and their technical equipment, the emissions calculated take into account the weather conditions.
The aim is to develop a methodology for the quantitative determination of CO2 emissions from shipping. With the help of data from the Automatic Identification System (AIS), movement information is set in relation to ship size, speed, and meteorological and oceanographic environmental conditions. More than 500,000,000 daily AIS data records from hundreds of own and thousands of cooperative AIS base stations as well as detailed ship data including information on the main propulsion plant are available to JCS
For each requiring AIS equipment vessel, the calculation of the emitted carbon dioxide should be functional. JCS has very detailed information for practically all ships. Especially for newbuildings, however, not all required data may be available yet. Therefore, more than 450 ship models have been generated which serve as a basis for calculation in case of missing detailed data. This was developed by the CML.
For reliable emission estimation, the development of a complex and innovative model to represent the resistance of the ship’s hull is necessary. This package includes the development of a hull drag model based on AIS, weather, environmental and static ship data. This work package was mainly developed by the CML.
