Operational POLARIS Ice Intelligence & IMO Polar Code Voyage Risk Assessment
Navigate Polar Waters with Complete Operational Certainty.
Designed by arctic maritime specialists for master mariners, ice navigators, fleet superintendents, and polar expedition operators, EA Arctic Navigator bridges the gap between raw hydrographic ice charts and actionable voyage safety decisions.
Combining official pan-Arctic vector ice data with the IMO POLARIS framework, real-time 10-day ECMWF/GFS weather forecasts, Polar Service Temperature (PST) climatology, and structured PWOM risk checklists, EA Arctic Navigator delivers a complete polar passage planning and regulatory compliance suite in a single, web-based platform.
The Operational Challenge
Transiting ice-covered waters under the IMO Polar Code demands far more than basic weather routing. Operators must calculate vessel-specific Risk Index Outcomes (RIO), verify minimum Polar Service Temperatures (PST), anticipate severe sea-spray icing, and document operational limits in the Polar Water Operational Manual (PWOM) for class, coastal state authorities, and underwriters.
Until now, this required piecing together static PDF ice eggs, raw meteorological text files, and manual spreadsheet calculations.
EA Arctic Navigator automates this entire workflow in real time.
