巡航日益受到人们欢迎。然而，很少有人考虑到少数（但确实存在的）落水的度假者。国际标准化组织（ISO）制定的新国际指南旨在推广一种技术，这种技术能够探测到落水情况并帮助落水人员回到船上。

巡航这一行业日益繁荣，不断出现越来越多的船只、目的地以及主题，预计今年将有2700万度假者进行巡航度假¹⁾。很少有人质疑这些船只的安全性，但平均每年都有21起人员落水事件²⁾。这推动了一个新行业的诞生，该行业研发可以提升警报率并及时定位落水人员的探

测系统。直到现在，都没有可以用来评估这些系统有效性的国际通用要求。

这项新的可公开获取的规范ISO/PAS 21195 船舶与海上技术——人员落水探测系统提供了国际通用的技术规范，用于那些旨在探测客轮上落水人员的系统。该规范涵盖了系统该如何在各种环境条件与事件情况中发挥作用。

Robin Townsend是制定这项标准的ISO分技术委员会ISO/TC 8/SC 1主席，他说，这是第一项对游轮行业中探测系统进行标准化并明确规定技术规范的文件。

“当大家都能按照同样的要求工作，制造商就能更加容易地评定这些系统的安全性、有效性以及性能，”他解释说，“这也为新技术的研发提供了一个坚实的基础。”

“我们现在的目标是推动这个文件成为正式的国际标准。因此，我们鼓励利益相关方（比如游轮行业中的利益相关方、系统研发人员或宣传团体）提出反馈与意见，从而确保该项标准尽可能地有力且有效。”

利益相关方可以联系本国的ISO成员，以获得更多详细信息。

ISO/PAS 21195是由船舶与海上技术委员会（ISO/TC 8）的海上安全分技术委员会（SC 1）制定的，该委员会的秘书处现由ISO的美国成员—担任。该项标准可通过您本国的ISO成员或通过ISO网上商店购买。

Cruising to safety: Improving man overboard detection with new international guidelines

Cruising never ceases to grow in popularity. Yet, what few like to consider is the small but real number of holidaymakers who fall overboard. New international guidelines from ISO aim to provide a boost to the technology that detects such incidents and helps them get back on board.

Over 27 million holidaymakers are expected to go on a cruising holiday this year¹⁾, as the industry booms with more ships, destinations and themes riding the wave. The safety of these ships is rarely put into question, yet an average of 21 “man overboard” incidents occur every year²⁾, fuelling an industry that develops detection systems to raise the alarm and locate the victim as soon as possible. Up until now, there have been no internationally agreed requirements to evaluate the effectiveness of such systems.

The new publicly available specification ISO/PAS 21195, Ships and marine technology - Systems for the detection of persons while going overboard from ships (Man overboard detection), provides internationally agreed technical specifications for systems designed to detect a person who has gone overboard from a passenger ship. It covers how the system is expected to perform in a range of environmental conditions and incident profiles.

Robin Townsend, Chair of ISO/TC 8/SC 1, the ISO subcommittee that developed the standard, said this is the first document of its kind to standardize and clearly define technical specifications for such systems in the cruise ship industry.

“With everyone working from the same set of requirements, manufacturers can more easily evaluate safety, effectiveness and performance of the systems,” he explained. “This also provides a strong foundation on which new technologies can be developed.”

“Our intention is now to develop the document into a full International Standard. Therefore, we encourage feedback and input from relevant stakeholders, such as those in the cruise ship industry, systems developers or advocacy groups, to ensure it is as robust and effective as possible.”

Interested parties can contact their national ISO member for further details.

ISO/PAS 21195 was developed by technical committee ISO/TC 8, Ships and marine technology, subcommittee SC 1, Maritime safety, whose secretariat is held by ANSI, ISO’s member for the USA. It can be purchased from your national ISO member or through theISO Store.
