Danelec, a global leader in maritime data solutions, has launched a new Data Quality Module as part of its Fleet Insights solution. This innovative new feature empowers shipowners to reduce emissions faster and unlock substantial operational savings, by ensuring that the High-Frequency Data (HFD) they receive via Fleet Insights is both accurate and actionable.
As the maritime industry intensifies its focus on digitalisation and decarbonisation, reliable technical insights have become non-negotiable, however, poor data quality remains a critical risk. Danelec’s new module confronts this challenge directly by delivering the tools needed to transform raw sensor data into a dependable foundation for emissions reporting, performance optimisation, and regulatory compliance.
“There’s a growing realisation that more data isn’t always better, especially if its quality cannot be trusted,” said Casper Jensen, CEO at Danelec. “Our new Data Quality Module equips shipowners with automated validation and monitoring of sensor data, unlocking the full potential of high-frequency insights without compromising trust or accuracy.”
Installing advanced sensors across fleets is a major investment, but the real challenge begins once those sensors go live. Research shows that up to 30% of critical sensors, such as Speed Through Water, can deliver erroneous data. Without automated oversight, small operational teams often spend hundreds of hours manually cleaning data, introducing delays and inconsistencies into decision-making.
Poor-quality data affects everything from fuel consumption calculations to compliance with growing environmental regulations. And with FuelEU coming into force in January 2025, the stakes are only getting higher. As compliance frameworks grow more stringent and data-driven, the margin for error is simply disappearing.
“With the Data Quality Module, fleet managers can now monitor real-time sensor availability, detect anomalies, and receive alerts on potential issues before they impact performance, compliance, or the bottom line,” added Jensen.
The Data Quality Module strengthens Danelec’s broader mission to enable shipowners to achieve emissions reductions faster with trusted technical insights. When paired with other Fleet Insights features, the module ensures ship performance analytics are built on a foundation of accurate, high-resolution data.
