Harvest Technology - Monitoring and supporting vessels using video and other data

This webinar is presented by Harvest Technology of Australia, which has technology which they promise can get at least 25 per cent more data through the same satcom pipe any other compression or bandwidth utilisation system.
We're also going to hear from Marcus Choy, Assistant Manager, Renewable Energy & Business Development and HaoTzi Tan, Technology Executive (in place of planned guest speaker Elisa Woodward, Head of Engineering, Shipbuilding & Technology who was unable to attend with apologies) from Vallianz , a company with a fleet of 74 offshore support vessels, talking about what is possible to achieve using this faster bandwidth - including giving office staff much better situation awareness about what is going on.
Harvest Technology can get more data through your satellite communications pipe with a proprietary technology which optimises data transfer. You probably know that data over the internet is sent in lots of packets, they might all take a different route to the destination, some of them never arrive, and some of them get resent.
if you want a completely perfect data transmission, then you need to wait for all the packets to arrive, so it takes longer, and the data being sent is higher.
On the other hand if you can afford to lose a pixel or two from your image, then it is OK to only send the packets once. If the image is just to maintain situation awareness data, that can be ok. This protocol also has a way of searching for any packets which are missing.
The speaker from Harvest Technology is Andy Freeman, technical sales manager EMEA with Harvest Technology Group, he is based in Aberdeen, Scotland. He'll be joined by Damiain Brown, chief product officer with Harvest Technology Group -he's based in Perth.
