OSI offers a variety of optional software capability modules and features that extend ECPINS’s main capabilities in navigation and situational awareness. Customers have the option of purchasing any selection of these modules for fleet-wide or platform-specific use.

3D
This module extends ECPINS’s powerful proprietary chart display engine by presenting a three-dimensional view derived from any installed vector charts. The operator can adjust the scale, angle, and detail of this view, over which can be laid contacts, routes, areas, chart objects, and a 3D rendition of the own ship.
Contact Intel
Facilitates the efficient monitoring, identification, and screening of contacts. This includes certain functions to import, export, and transfer contact data to other systems. Additionally, providing integration with NATO Form Gold.
GNSS Denied
Determines one’s own relative ship position in circumstances where a position fix derived from any Global Navigation Satellite System may not be available (such as for a dived submarine), degraded (e.g. spoofing, signal obstruction or insufficient satellites), or in denied environments (e.g. jamming).
Auto Dead Reckoning and Pool of Errors display and management are both central features to this capability module. Whilst traditionally this capability has been uniquely delivered to navies only operating submarines, the operational dynamics naval warfare has seen an increased demand for these features across surface fleets.
Mine Ops
Enables the visual display of Mine-Like Objects (MLO) from an integrated database, sonar or combat management system. The chart displays MLO data and includes assigned depth values to ensure the MLO’s are correctly presented in 3D.
Ops Plot
Offers tools and solutions for the planning and review of passages, operations, and exercises. Route Traceback allows a navigator to create a new route based on the foundation of a previous track – that of the own ship, other ship, or contact, or from a log file.
Signals
Allows the operator to import a NATO-standard signal, such as a SUBNOTE, into ECPINS, which can automatically plot navigational elements such as a route, PIM, or area.
Squat
Useful for when a vessel’s draft alters, this module enables the operator to have ECPINS alter the safety depth along specific route legs according to the vessel’s squat characteristics at the current or planned speed.
Aircraft Ops
Enables the bridge crew to maneuver the ship in such a way in order to maintain optimal conditions for safe aircraft operations. A SHOL (Ship Helicopter Operating Limits) screen layout provides the operator with a real-time graphical display of relative wind, pitch and roll, outhouse, aircraft status, and cones of courses. This layout can display both single or multiple landing spots, presented separately or merged. The operator can instantly apply any SHOL plate from a drop-down menu selection, with variation by aircraft type, task and weight applied as required.
SHOL editor enables the creation and optimization of new SHOL plates as required by the customer’s overarching aviation authority. SHOL successfully digitizes the laborious task of calculating the most optimal speed and heading available in a manner that is efficient and non-intrusive; allowing the user to maintain the operational tempo without the need to attend to tedious manual calculations.

Radar Fusion
Fuses the image and tracks from two radars into a single 360° picture. Works with both analog and digital radars.
Stateboard
This module provides a screen layout that presents the Officer of the Watch an overview of navigation and operational considerations. This function enables the OOW to monitor the voyage, flag events, set alerts, log notes and hand over the watch in an efficient manner.
Sub Ops
Enhances dived navigation operations through the inclusion of certain features such as dived safety depth, dived depth display, enhanced INS position display, and a screen layout devoted to depth-keeping and conning.
