5.7 WinGD Integrated Digital Expert (WiDE)
The WinGD Integrated Digital Expert (WiDE) provides full awareness of the
ship’s operating condition and allows operators to take necessary actions to con-
trol and optimise ship operations. The shore connection allows the ship’s oper-
ator to manage and optimise fleet operations.
WiDE constantly collects all engine signals together with ship navigation data
making them available both on board and onshore. Engine data is collected and
analysed by the engine diagnostic algorithms of WiDE to monitor engine perfor-
mance, predict component malfunctions and to support the crew with live trou-
bleshooting and a diagnostic advisory service. WiDE also enhances remote
troubleshooting support by WinGD experts.

5.7.1 Data collection
WiDE collects engine and other ship data, which is stored on board by the WiDE
computer, enabling the crew to display and review trends of key engine parame-
ters.
Data collected by WiDE is sent via a secure encrypted communication channel
to the WinGD server. The data is made available on two dedicated web portals
(eVesselTracker, WiDE online) accessible by a protected user account. WinGD
experts review engine data when required, as a first step of remote operation sup-
port. The WiDE computer is delivered as standard with WinGD engines.
