Wayfinder collects default safety thresholds during onboarding to initiate routing. Because these thresholds directly influence guidance decisions and power real-time alerts, we encourage users to review and maintain them regularly. Take a look at the instructions below to learn how to update these settings. Don’t forget to click SAVE when you're finished!

Vessel Details

Draft, Displacement, Metacentric height (GM), and Roll period, reflect the current state of the vessel. These values should ****be updated when the vessel is imminently departing or if these values change while underway.

Safety Operating Limits

The safety operating limits set for your vessel play a key role in the route guidance provided. Changing these inputs will directly impact the routing strategy for your vessel and may result in more or less commercially aggressive route options.

In cases of inclement weather, Wayfinder will consider the vessels safety operating limits to inform and proovide alternate route options for review.

Resonance Alert Thresholds

Wayfinder predicts and alerts for Parametric Roll, Synchronous Roll, High Wave attack and Broaching based vessel specific thresholds.

Each warning uses a significant wave height threshold that will determine whether the warning is visualized along your route as "Low risk" or "High risk".

Please review, edit, and save your preferred significant wave height thresholds for each type of warning in the Seakeeping tab in Wayfinder.


Encounter Wave Thresholds

Encounter wave alert thresholds can be set in the seakeeping tab, along with other seakeeping alert thresholds.

The thresholds correspond to the following angles of attack (symmetrically on either side of the ship):
