ABSTRACT
The ensuring of security in the coastal area (especially in harbour area) makes in coastal countries necessary to do research work towards integration of environmental data integration. The present report is a review of the literature on technological solutions for centric network systems used so far in military activities. This paper reveals the effects of work taken in effort to build charts, which are integrated electronic navigational chart with photo chart of coastal terrain as well as with hydrological and meteorological data. The article is focused on problems connected to creation of network centric environment which integrates data available in several different formats. One of the efficient and technologically advanced tools, which can act in such an environment is (in authors team opinion) unmanned surface vehicle. To sum up, partial results of research work ware presented regarding those issues made during a development project number O R00 0105 11 financed by National Research and Development Centre.
