Die Lotsenbrüderschaft Elbe ist ein geschlossener Kreis, der sich nicht gern in die Karten schauen lässt. Wer dort Mitglied werden und bis zu 400 Meter lange Containerpötte in den Hamburger Hafen steuern möchte, muss hohe Anforderungen erfüllen.

Article Study: A Real-Time Method for Time-to-Collision Estimation from Aerial Images

published on 16 March 2022

Vessels are required by law to have a trained maritime pilot on board responsible for safely navigating the ship to its desired destination.
