Solving Global Maritime Data Connectivity Challenges with Leading-Edge Solutions from Aanaar Consulting Ltd.

Today’s globally focused shipping and maritime industries require increasingly agile, secure, high-speed/high-volume data connections which are easily accessible from all regions of the world. Maintaining this reliable, high-capacity, ubiquitous data connectivity not only promotes operational efficiency, but also a critical component of keeping passengers and crew connected to friends, family and associates across the globe. Today’s operations require fast, reliable, user-friendly & dependable Internet access to handle a full suite of ship monitoring and management functions.

Managing this surging demand of data requires agile and sophisticated solutions to keep pace with expanding user requirements. At Aanarr Consulting Ltd., our experienced team examined this problem extensively from all angles and developed a full suite of advanced, flexible and cost-effective solutions.

Addressing today’s rapidly expanding demand for flexible data connectivity need in terms of High speed, large/low data volume with long term / short term commitment period along with the ability to support modern vessel operations, ship monitoring & management along with crew internet connectivity needs requires innovative solutions. Globally focused maritime and shipping industries require agile, cost-effective and customized roaming data connections to maintain real-time, worldwide data access and communications.

Modern shipping companies also face extensive crew turnover due, in part, to a lack of sufficient connectivity solutions at shore allowing them to reach family and friends. Many companies allocate extensive resources to address this problem, but fail to obtain a viable solution.

The data connectivity required to fuel these essential modern functions now plays an instrumental role in the day-to-day lives and operations of crews and passengers on cruise ships, cargo freighters, leisure craft, offshore oil rigs and other vessels. In terms of primary motivators though, crew welfare is now one of the main drivers for increased data availability in modern shipping operations. Crews who possess data connectivity not only more readily maintain connections to friends and family, but also feel less isolated from the outside world. Meeting this need for crew-focused, high-speed 3G/4G data and Wi-Fi connectivity presents an ongoing challenge for the global maritime industry due to the lack of cost-effective, user-friendly options on the market.
