A Voyage Data Recorder (VDR) is essential for recording critical navigation data, including position, speed, heading, and bridge audio. Installation ensures that the VDR complies with international regulations and is fully integrated with the vessel’s navigation systems. Proper installation involves setting up sensors, connecting data channels, and ensuring the system is functional. VDRs are crucial for post-incident investigations and are mandatory under SOLAS. Proper installation ensures compliance with maritime safety regulations and guarantees that vital data is recorded in case of accidents or incidents.
