Abstract

For the river shipping the transported cargo values have to be computed based on the DS-draught survey records. Differences for cargo masses are recorded between DS and the on-shore weight. In order to increase the accuracy of the DS - draught survey procedure, we have developed the DRSWIN program based on a digital barge shape model. The quality of the barge shape model has a significant influence on the overall draught processing accuracy. For the barge type B1740T Europe B2, we have developed three hull shapes digital models with different density of the offset-lines. The results point out the most suitable hull shape digital model for the best accuracy on DS - draught survey processing.
