Intelligent Tools for Safer, Greener Logistics & Marine Coordination

Written by Ole-Erik Vestøl Endrerud | Dec 9, 2025 12:43:19 PM

At Shoreline Wind, we believe the tools supporting complex field operations should reduce complexity, not add to it. They should help teams see further ahead, act faster, and protect the environments they work in. And because we never stop building better tools for the industry, we are now introducing a set of new updates to our Logistics and Marine Coordination solution that empower teams with greater awareness and confidence. 

These enhancements combine geofencing, zone creation, map visualization, environmental observations, and automated monitoring into a single, intuitive workflow. The result is clearer situational awareness, stronger environmental stewardship, and a more proactive way to coordinate activity in the field. 
 

How Intelligent Geofencing Improves Coordination 

Intelligent geofencing brings a new level of visibility and control to your operations. Instead of relying on manual monitoring or scattered tools, teams can now define, observe, and track critical areas directly on the map with precision and ease. This update is designed as one streamlined capability, yet it introduces three connected features that work together to give coordination teams a dramatically improved view of their site. Together, they create a smarter, more proactive way to manage movement, protect sensitive areas, and support safer, more sustainable operations. 

Draw the boundaries that matter 

With new geofencing capabilities, teams can now draw custom zones directly on the map with just a few quick clicks. It takes only seconds to outline the areas that matter, making zone creation fast, intuitive, and accessible for any user. 

Whether defining wildlife protection areas, observations, construction zones, busy asset clusters, or temporary exclusion areas for testing, the map becomes a visually clear and interactive canvas for establishing operational and environmental boundaries. This gives teams immediate clarity on where activity requires closer attention. 

Bring context to every zone 

Once drawn, zones become live layers of operational intelligence. What was previously fragmented across emails, spreadsheets, and conversations now lives in one shared view. Users can add descriptions, tags, and observations such as wildlife sightings, notes on field conditions, vehicle activity, or equipment placement. These details bring each zone to life, helping teams understand not just where something is happening, but what it means for the operation. 

Get alerted when something needs attention 

The system automatically notifies coordination teams when vessels, vehicles, or other assets enter or exit a zone, and alerts can be configured to match the needs of each project. If an asset exceeds a defined speed limit within a zone, the system sends a notification as well. This helps safeguard sensitive areas, reinforce safety practices, and support compliance with environmental and operational standards. 

Together, these capabilities create a proactive monitoring system that works in the background while your team focuses on running the operation. 
 

Why This Matters for Field Operations 

Whether supporting onshore logistics or offshore wind activity, teams work in environments where small deviations can carry significant consequences. A vehicle entering a restricted zone, a vessel moving into a protected area, or equipment traveling too quickly through a sensitive corridor can all introduce environmental, safety, or compliance risks. 

Intelligent geofencing helps teams: 

  • reduce the chance of intrusions into protected or restricted zones
  • safeguard ecosystems by enforcing speed limits and responsible movement
  • respond faster to unexpected behavior or emerging risks
  • maintain a digital record of responsible activity for audits and ESG reporting
  • improve communication between operational, environmental, and HSE teams 

By weaving environmental and operational awareness into daily coordination, organizations take a meaningful step toward safer and more sustainable practices. 

New Standard for Operations Coordination 

This update represents more than a feature enhancement. It reflects a shift in how field operations can be managed. Instead of relying on manual monitoring or fragmented tools, teams gain an intelligent system that continuously watches over the areas that matter. 

By bringing zone creation, contextual observations, and automated alerts into one unified workflow, the Shoreline map becomes an active operational safety tool. It helps teams move from reactive responses to proactive oversight, strengthening both reliability and environmental protection. 

Navigate Field Operations with Confidence 

This release reinforces Shoreline’s commitment to helping organizations run efficient and responsible onshore and offshore projects with confidence and clarity. Intelligent geofencing supports teams in staying ahead of environmental expectations while elevating the safety and precision of operations coordination.
