Voyage Data Recorders (VDR) continuously record vital information relating to the operation of the vessel such as speed,
engine telegraph, gyro heading, etc. The stored data can be recovered in the event of an incident.

Removable data storage.
Float-free or fixed data storage capsule.

The new standards require VDRs to have both a fixed and float free capsule, capable of holding 48 hours of
voyage data.
A long term storage medium is also required to record 30 days of data. The new VDR is able to
record ECDIS as well as a second radar.
