VOS operations
VOS (Voyage Optimization System) is an optional route optimization software from DMI (Danish Maritime
Institute). If available it operates fully integrated with the ECDIS.
VOS operations are selected from Route planning in Parameters sheet. They are selectable in Optimize type combo
box, when selected Operation System goes to optimization part of the VOS software. VOS itself has its own
operator's manual.
For more information, how to make optimization, see "How to optimize" on page 236.
