K-Sim® GMDSS
GMDSS Simulator for training and assessment of ship specialists for General Operator Certification (GOC) and Restricted Operator Certification (ROC)
K-Sim® GMDSS
Realistic training for GOC, ROC, and SAR Certification
Effective communication is essential for maritime safety, enabling quick emergency responses and coordination with rescue authorities and nearby vessels.
The K-Sim GMDSS simulator meets the highest industry standards and regulations, ensuring comprehensive and compliant training. It adheres to:
STCW 2010(International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification, and Watchkeeping for Seafarers)
IMO Model Courses1.24, 1.25, 1.31, and 3.15
DNV-ST-0033(Maritime Simulator Systems)
IMCA Guidance on the Use of Simulator Systems(C 014 Rev.2)
K-Sim GMDSS provides a highly realistic training experience with a powerful interaction between the instructor station and the student station (simulated ship). The ability to build a new world from scratch makes training possibilities endless. Another nice feature is the 3D view of equipment, allowing students to virtually handle and inspect devices, and even switch batteries when necessary.

Flexible training solutions
The K-Sim GMDSS is typically delivered as a classroom training solution (DNV Class C) with an instructor station and multiple student stations. For advanced scenarios such as SAR operations, the system can be integrated with the K-Sim Navigation simulator (DNV Class A or B), providing an even more realistic and immersive training environment.
Learning objectives
K-Sim GMDSS enables trainees to:
Develop and refine communication and coordination skills with crew, other vessels, Vessel Traffic Services (VTS), and pilot boarding stations.
Practice transmitting and receiving information using GMDSS equipment and subsystems.
Gain expertise in radio operations during emergency situations.
Improve situational awareness and confidence in handling distress, urgency, safety, and routine communications.
Learn to prevent false distress alerts, a critical issue in GMDSS operations.
Comprehensive training equipment
The K-Sim GMDSS simulator includes all necessary devices for advanced exercises covering all aspects of GMDSS, including SAR operations. Additional effects such as fire, explosions, ship sinkings, and debris enhance training realism. An optional Radio Direction Finder (RDF) is available for SAR exercises.
The K-Sim GMDSS simulator includes all required radio communication equipment, tailored to the specific sailing areas:
A1:Coastal waters
A2:Up to 400 nautical miles from the coast
A3 & A4:Global maritime operations
