The application then compares the data to user inputs and based on predetermined metrics a “work safety category” is created. Depending on the “work safety category”, the user decides whether the task at hand should be started, continued, or stopped. This application may help prevent accidents by providing a clearer safety assessment to all those who work on the water. | 02-12-2015 |
