Abstract

This invention provides a system and method for fleet management, including handling visual events in association with an activity. One or more visual event detector(s) is/are provided, having at least one camera that acquires images of the activity, and a processor that receives the images. A visual event detection process operates to process the images. A queuing process identifies visual events from the visual event detector and stores the visual events. A communications process transmits the stored visual events in a queued format to a remote location. A display that is accessed by users to view visual events, and a collaboration process displays information related to collaboration between permitted users based upon a context of each of the visual events—which can comprise fleet management activities related to at least one of bridge operations, cargo operations, maintenance operations, safety operations, and vetting and security with respect to a vessel.
