Every vessel. Every operation. Every answer.
Navitrak helps oil, gas and LNG terminals monitor vessel approach, moored vessel movement, port traffic and operational evidence from one browser-based platform.
It combines berthing sensors, AIS, cameras, weather and fender data, so the marine team can see the operation live, detect unsafe movement and review the full record afterwards.
Built by Metratek Telematics, successor to DockAssist, with marine terminal deployments since 2008.
Operational at a Mediterranean LNG import terminal — the recorded operations on this page come from that system.
Safer berthings. Shared live view. Records that stand up.
Safer berthings
Every approach is measured against the safe envelope, and drift or over-speed is flagged before it becomes contact.
Fewer, better-documented incidents
Force and energy on each fender are computed every second, and logged the moment a rated limit is approached.
Records that stand up
An operation report is ready before the pilot leaves the jetty — for insurers, class societies and regulators.
Built around terminal infrastructure
Navitrak integrates selected berthing sensors, AIS, cameras, weather stations and fender data, including existing site equipment where compatibility is confirmed during engineering review.
One operational picture, not five separate screens.

The vessel doesn't stop moving once it's berthed.
During loading and unloading, Navitrak continues to track the moored vessel's movement against a configurable drift envelope — surge, sway and heading change from the settled position. An alert is raised if movement approaches the envelope limit, alongside wind and tide conditions at the berth, so the marine team can respond before a mooring line or gangway is put at risk.
- Drift monitored continuously for the full duration alongside, not just during approach
- Envelope limits set per berth, per vessel class or per operation
- Wind, tide and fender load shown alongside the drift reading, not as separate systems
From first approach to final report.
The way a terminal actually experiences a call — Navitrak covers each moment of it, on one record.
Centimetre-precise tracking
3D lidar can provide a wider hull profile than single-point sensors, depending on placement and berth geometry — distance, closing speed and angle against your configured limits, updated every second.
Berthing energy, computed live
Reaction force and energy on each fender, and how close each is to its rated limit — computed from fender datasheet curves, geometry and calibration, running continuously.
Continuous drift and weather watch
Movement from the settled position, environmental conditions and vessel behaviour, checked against the alert thresholds your team sets.
A report before the pilot leaves
An operation report for every event: the approach timeline, per-fender performance, environmental context and a review flag against configured thresholds.
A complete, searchable history
Every operation is retained and can be searched in plain language — authorised users can locate events, compare vessel visits and see the source data behind each answer.
Every vessel, one picture
Port-scale traffic down to the berth in a single view, on any screen your operators use — bridge, tug, jetty or control room.
Metratek Telematics has built marine-terminal sensing software since 2008 — from DockAssist, among the first systems to integrate AIS with laser berthing sensors, to Navitrak's ground-up rebuild with 3D lidar and continuous fender physics. Eighteen years, one focus: berthing-aid and traffic-monitoring software, and nothing else.
From fender datasheet to per-event performance.
Fender datasheet curves, berth geometry and calibration are combined with the live approach and mooring data to estimate deflection, reaction force, absorbed energy and percentage of rated capacity for each fender, continuously.
See engineering analyticsMore than a display from a sensor package.
Conventional berthing aid systems often focus on live distance and speed display. Navitrak adds multi-sensor records, event replay, fender performance analytics, configurable alerts, historical search and tender-ready evidence.
Designed with reference to the standards that matter.
