Totem ECDIS unique features were design to enhance SAFETY on board ships:
Future Projection of ship’s position allows safe maneuvering in narrow spaces. Number of projections and time between projections are user selectable.
EDA: History files can be analyzed by E-navigation Data Audit program to detect near miss events such as “almost collision” or “almost grounding”. EDA can allow proper auditing on how the bridge team is performing and assist in monitoring the performance of the vessel
A cross-Bearing position can be calculated automatically, with 2 or 3 bearings to create a fix;
Replay mode is part of the system and issued to play back a previously recorded voyage. Replay module shows not only navigational data but also actual active route and actual user configuration.
Search & Rescue enhanced module according to IAMSAR: Totem ECDIS Search and Rescue function will include sea surface currents and will support matters of search and rescue at sea with proposed sailings and courses in relation to the deduction of the sea state, wind and sea currents of endangered ship or man at sea.

Totem ECDIS can interface with:
Mandatory: GPS/DGPS navigation receiver; Gyrocompass; Speed log
Important: AIS; Radar – ARPA (Radar Overlay optional); Echo sounder
Nice to have: Anemometer; VDR; BNWAS; Navtex; BAMS
Totem ECDIS is approved by DNV-GL as Track Control system, together with Raytheon Anschutz or Yokogawa Auto pilots.
The new Track Control system is designed to keep the vessel on a selected pre-determined route with unlimited number of waypoints.
