[VISIR-2 ship weather routing model] source code (Python)

  • 1. ROR icon CMCC Foundation - Euro-Mediterranean Center on Climate Change

Description

Source code of the VISIR-2 ship weather routing model. 

The Python-refactored VISIR-2 model considers currents, waves, and wind to optimise routes. The model was validated, and its computational performance is quasi-linear. For a ferry sailing in the Mediterranean Sea, VISIR-2 yields the largest percentage emission savings for upwind navigation. Given the vessel performance curve, the model is generalisable across various vessel types.

Notes

This version of the VISIR-2 source code represents an enhancement over the one documented in the manuscript:

Mannarini, G., Salinas, M. L., Carelli, L., Petacco, N., and Orović, J.: VISIR-2: ship weather routing in Python, EGUsphere [preprint], https://doi.org/10.5194/egusphere-2023-2060, 2023.

A revised version has been submitted and is currently being evaluated by the editors of Geosci. Model Dev.
