MetOcean conditions in area where the ferry is operation. Directions are given following meteorological conventions, i.e. indicate the direction wind, currents, and waves are coming from. The color indicates the share of the collected data with a specific combination of direction and strength of the individual variables. The doted lines represent the average course over ground for the two legs of the ferry route.

A weather routing system for a ferry in Norway has been developed. In this paper three different models for estimating the energy consumption have been evaluated. The three energy models include two data-driven models, i.e., a linear regression model and a hybrid model, and a simulation-based energy model. The hybrid energy model performed best wit...

... should be noted that this weather routing system has been developed for research purposes and it is not currently used in operation. Figure 3 shows the MetOcean conditions in the area where the ferry operates for a period of approximately four months. In this area, the ferry experiences wind from all directions with wind speeds from 0 to 20 m/s, with moderate wind from the southwest representing the most common condition. ...
