A system for generating a map for use in the navigation of one or more vessels is described. The system comprises: one or more sensor sub-systems provided on a vessel and configured for sensing, in real-time, the presence of obstacles within a local environment of the vessel; a processor associated with the one or more sensor sub-systems for collecting the sensor data and configured for generating therefrom, in a serialised digital format, a real-time map of the local environment surrounding the vessel; data communication means between the processor and a remotely located hub, the hub in data communication with one or more remote sensing systems located remotely from the vessel. The hub is configured to collect additional sensor data from a source remote from the vessel and communicate the additional sensor data to the processor. The processor is configured on receipt of additional sensor data to generate a real-time map from the sensor data and the additional sensor data.
