Buffalo Computer Graphics' maritime simulation staff has extensive experience in the design and development of marine radar and communication simulators. Many of our staff members have been dedicated to the development of our simulation products for over twenty-five years. Our line of radar simulators is IMO / STCW compliant and can be adapted to meet HLA or DIS requirements. All models are capable of generating the target, landmass and radar effects video required to create realistic radar images from computer generated data. As a result, training exercises carried out using a BCG simulator appear real to observers monitoring the radar displays. Should you desire to speak to one of our technical or subject matter experts, please contact us at (716) 822-8668. We would be happy to discuss your needs. |

| A common thread throughout all of BCG’s simulator systems (GUI, PCS-100, PCS-200, PCRadar) are the database files used to establish the exercise training area. In the past BCG provided radar databases created by a digitizing system exclusive to BCG that utilized paper charts as the data source. Our more recent database files are created using custom designed software that reads and interprets DNC data for its source information. These new database files represent not only ‘fresher’ data than our paper chart versions, but the radar image also correlates more closely with ECDIS chart presentations that utilize the same or similar data for their presentation. BCG still maintains the policy of creating and selling radar databases for our customers. Our normal turn around time is 2-3 weeks ARO. As customers use the PCS family of simulators, there may be a need for additional training areas (databases). Each port area serviced by a ship becomes a potential training area for the mariners aboard that vessel. As an option to our simulator product line, BCG now offers our Radar Landmass Database Generator (RLDG) Workstation to support this need.

The Radar Landmass Database Generator Workstation allows the operator to create a radar database for a specific geographical area he or she wishes to train in, and do so directly from a DNC (VPF) CDROM. Once the radar image is created by the RLDG, the operator will have the capability to customize the radar image to meet the exact training needs. The final database files can then be distributed to any BCG PCS-100, PCS-200, PCRadar, or PCS-100VMS simulator used by our customers. For more information, click here to view our product brochure. |
