The Inland Waterways Authority of India (IWAI) launched a new portal LADIS for real-time information on available depth on stretches of National Waterways.
About:
Full name: LADIS is an acronym for “Least Available Depth Information System”.
Objective: LADIS will ensure that real-time data on least available depths (LAD) is disseminated for ship/barge and cargo owners so that they can undertake transportation on NWs in a more planned way. An assured depth of waterway is required for seamless movement of vessels.
Bodies involved: The portal being hosted on Inland Waterways Authority of India (IWAI) website iwai.nic.inhas been developed in-house.
Routes covered: Initially LAD information will be available for NW-1, NW-2, Indo-Bagladesh Protocol route and NW-3, along with the date of survey. The facility will be expanded to other NWs also.
