摘要:Although 3D-CAD has been used in the shipbuilding industry for a long time, effective use of 3D data in the production and new initial design based on the 3D model are not advanced compared with the expectation. Moreover, it is difficult for a ship owner and a classification society to use the 3D model effectively because CADs and the security policies are different according to the shipyard.Considering the above discussions, Japan society of naval architects and ocean engineers set the project research committee and has examined the information platform named SPEEDS (Smart Platform of Enhanced Engineering Data for Shipping and Shipbuilding). SPEEDS aims to realize the sharing and exchange of various information on ships among the all maritime industries including shipyards, classification society, ship owner, operator and the marine equipment manufacturers. A simplified 3D geometry information and a variety of attribute information are described in the SPEEDS and the player in maritime industries can utilize these information promptly and effectively based on the various use cases of ship lifecycle.In this paper, overview of SPEEDS is discussed with some examples intended for use cases in ship lifecycle.
