Great Belt VTS gets new vessel traffic services system

Kongsberg has delivered a new Vessel Traffic Services (VTS) system for Great Belt VTS, supporting traffic management through one of Europe’s busiest straits and providing information services to vessels passing the Great Belt Bridge in Denmark.

The contract was awarded by the Danish Ministry of Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organisation (DALO).

The delivery includes Foresight, Kongsberg’s in-house developed software system for maritime domain awareness, including special adaptations and development tailored to the needs of Great Belt VTS.

The system is integrated with existing radar and closed-circuit television (CCTV) infrastructure, with Kongsberg managing the integration and interfaces.

“The system is now fully operational, with our team providing support remotely rather than on site,” said Rune Mortensen, Project Manager at Kongsberg.
