Marine Accident Data Analysis Suite

Marine Accident Data Analysis Suite (MADAS)

At OceanEx, we use the powerful Marine Accident Data Analysis Suite (MADAS), an industry-leading software made by Avenca, UK, and trusted by maritime authorities worldwide (MAIB, NTSB), to conduct legally robust, high-resolution Voyage Data Recorder (VDR) investigations. This suite enables our experts to extract, decode, and reconstruct data from VDRs with pinpoint accuracy, revealing what truly happened before, during, and after a maritime incident.

MADAS Capabilities

  • High-fidelity Playback of VDR Data: Bridge audio, radar, ECDIS, engine logs, AIS & CCTV in perfect sync.
  • 360° Situational Reconstruction: Full visual and audio replication of the navigational environment.
  • Event Timeline Analysis: Precise sequencing and display of alarms, orders, rudder actions, and system responses.
  • Speed, Heading, and Maneuver Tracking: For validating decision-making and vessel handling.
  • Legally Admissible Outputs: Court-ready visuals and expert reporting in compliance with IMO and SOLAS standards.
  • Anomaly Detection: Highlighting procedural lapses, human error, or system failure.

Our digital VDR reconstructions have helped resolve disputes, support expert witness testimony, and drive claim settlements without prolonged litigation, where the visual outputs and expert reports have been accepted as evidence in courts and arbitration.
