Abstract
This disclosure relates to a device and method for sensing and correcting a marine transport environment of a ship. According to one embodiment, the disclosed device comprises a processor that: receives sensing information regarding temperature and humidity inside a cargo on the ship from an external source, verifies the temperature and the humidity of the sensing information based on at least one of a GPS indicating a location of the ship and an ETA at a destination of the ship along a navigation route, and corrects transport environment information including the temperature and the humidity based on the verification results.
Claims9
A device for sensing and correcting a marine transport environment of a ship, comprising:
- an inertial sensor, configured to measure a roll of the ship;
- and
- a processor, configured to:
- receive sensing information regarding temperature and humidity inside a cargo on the ship from an external source,
- verify the temperature and the humidity of the sensing information based on at least one of a Global Positioning System (GPS) indicating a location of the ship and an Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) at a destination of the ship along a navigation route, and
- correct transport environment information including the temperature and the humidity based on the verification results,
- wherein the processor comprises:
- a verifier, configured to:
- measure a current location of the ship based on GPS,
- verify the temperature and the humidity inside the cargo by comparing predicted values at the current location of the ship with a predefined first reference value,
- measure ETA along the navigation route based on externally received input, and
- verify the temperature and the humidity inside the cargo by comparing predicted values at the current ETA with a predefined second reference value;
- a computation unit, configured to calculate correction parameters based on the measured temperature and humidity and reference values;
- and
- a corrector, configured to correct the transport environment based on the verification results from the verifier and the correction parameters from the computation unit.
