In the full mission bridge simulators it is possible to carry out complete simulations of the operations performed on a real ship: in different weather conditions, with different types of ships around you and in different areas and ports around the globe, even in narrow straits. Together with the Swedish Maritime Administration's simulators the centre currently offers ten ships' bridges, two coastal stations and one maritime rescue coordination centre.
