The Restricted Areas module provides an interface to manage and view zones with special regulations. Users can explore the list of restricted areas, detailed attributes, and allowed bunker categories. This feature is critical for ensuring compliance with environmental and operational standards in maritime regions.
The main screen of the Restricted Areas module displays a list with the following columns:
Code: A unique identifier for each restricted area.
Name: The full name of the restricted area (e.g., North America Pacific, Panama Canal ECA).
At the top of the page, you will find a button to refresh the list of restricted areas, allowing users to update the displayed data.
Upon selecting a restricted area from the list, the right-hand panel presents detailed information:
Code: A unique code representing the area (e.g., NSECA).
Name: The formal name of the area (e.g., North Sea and Baltic).
Geo JSON Coordinates: This field shows the geographic boundary in GeoJSON format, identifying the region on the map.
Open-loop Restricted: This checkbox indicates whether open-loop scrubbers are restricted in the selected area.
The Allowed Bunker Categories section lists the types of fuel allowed in the restricted area for both main engines and auxiliary engines. The following columns are displayed:
Name: The type of the fuel (e.g., Low Sulphur Marine Gas, Fuel Oil, Liquefied Natural Gas).
Description: Detailed description of the bunker category.
Main Engine: Whether the fuel is allowed for main engine use (checkmark indicates approval).
Open-loop: A checkmark here signifies if open-loop operations are permitted for this fuel type.
Scrubber Fitted: Indicates if the ship must be equipped with scrubbers when using this type of fuel in the restricted area.
Priority: It represents the fuel type's priority in this restricted area.
Refresh Button: Updates the list of restricted areas.
Load More Button: Displays additional restricted areas if available.
Only users in the superuser group can modify certain elements, such as adding new restricted areas, changing bunker category priorities, and editing attributes related to open-loop restrictions.
