This chapter provides a ship perspective on digitalisation and maritime informatics in relation to decision support for navigation and voyage monitoring. The rapid technological development in the world will continue to affect the development of information systems for decision-making used both on-board and ashore. The chapter gives a general introduction where the ship as an information source is introduced, before moving on to ship navigation, followed by the monitoring and management of a ship’s voyages and port calls. A ship is both a consumer of data originating from different sources and a provider of data. Most ships are now sources of some level of information that can be remotely monitored, collected, analysed, and acted upon. Many on-board information systems support decisions for the officer on watch during a voyage. The presentation of the information is important, and successful standardisation has been made in several areas.
