RIS implementation on the Sava River has started, with the expected project duration of 15 months. The end beneficiary of the system is the Croatian Agency for Inland waterways.
Expected outputs are as follows:
Full RIS implementation, including development and integration, of the following subsystems on the Sava waterway: AIS system, VHF voice system, RIS Index, Hull database
Transfer of the implemented RIS system into the final operational mode, including training activities of beneficiary staff and users.
Lock Management System
RGO Communications Ltd., commissioned by via donau –
Österreichische Wasserstraßen-Gesellschaft mbH, is developing and implementing
the national Lock Management System (LMS) – an integrated IT solution for
managing and monitoring lock operations along the nine Austrian Danube locks.
The project covers all stages of software development – from
requirements specification and system concept, through user interface
prototyping, implementation, installation, testing and multi-year maintenance
and technical support.
LMS enables complete digital management of lock operations,
including vessel passage recording, automated lock cycle planning, real-time
lock chamber visualization, shift and incident management, as well as reporting
and data exchange with related river information systems (DoRIS, CEERIS, EuRIS,
EHDB).
The system integrates advanced functionalities such as
automatic lock scheduling, failure and notification management, user and access
administration, and data synchronization through internal and external APIs.
This project represents a significant milestone in the
digital transformation of inland waterway traffic management, enhancing safety,
interoperability, and operational efficiency within the European River
Information Services (RIS) framework.
