Teledyne Raymarine Launches MyRA 2.0 Voyage Planning Tool

A New Web-Based Voyage Planning Platform

Teledyne Raymarine Commercial, a division of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated, has launched MyRA 2.0, an upgraded browser-based voyage planning and route appraisal system. According to a report by Maritime Executive, the platform is aimed at helping commercial fleet operators produce validated, regulation-compliant voyage plans more quickly while strengthening cooperation between ship and shore teams.

Built on the company’s continuously updated global routing database and linked to its ECDIS products, MyRA 2.0 is designed to simplify voyage planning at a time when operators face mounting compliance, vetting, and safety obligations.

What the Platform Offers

Unlike traditional planning software requiring local installation, MyRA 2.0 runs entirely in a browser, cutting down on IT overhead for both shipboard and shore-based users. It pulls together routing data, regulatory information, weather inputs, and automated compliance checks into one shared digital workspace, allowing navigators and fleet managers to view consistent, near real-time voyage information.

The system is built to generate ECDIS-ready voyage plans through guided, automated workflows, cutting the time typically needed for manual planning. It also cross-checks plans against routing rules, chart status, notices to mariners, and navigational warnings — functions intended to support compliance with SOLAS passage-planning requirements and common vetting standards. Activity logging and audit trails are included to give marine, fleet operations, and HSQE departments added oversight.

Company Perspective

Stephan Dimke, general manager of Teledyne Raymarine Commercial, said voyage planning has grown more demanding as companies try to balance safety, regulatory compliance, and efficiency. He noted that MyRA 2.0 combines the company’s routing intelligence, automated validation, and ship-shore connectivity into a single web platform, building on ChartWorld’s established digital navigation background. Dimke said the goal is to deliver more transparency, less administrative workload, and greater confidence that voyage plans are compliant and ready for inspection.

A central feature of the update is its shared ship-shore workflow, letting crews and shore staff access identical voyage-planning data throughout the process. This is intended to promote standardized planning across fleets and cut down on inconsistencies that can create compliance exposure.

The platform also draws on ChartWorld’s background in digital navigation, voyage planning, and chart management, now operating under the Teledyne Raymarine Commercial brand. Additional features include weather-optimized routing, customizable outputs, company-specific templates, and secure data exchange, all intended to help operators standardize planning procedures while improving overall efficiency.

What It Means for Fleet Operators

For technical superintendents and fleet managers, tools like MyRA 2.0 point to a broader shift in how voyage compliance is documented and verified. As port state control and vetting inspections increasingly expect digital evidence trails — not just a signed passage plan — platforms that automatically log route validation, chart currency, and navigational warning checks could make it easier to demonstrate compliance during inspections and audits. This also reinforces a trend already visible in bunker, condition, and pre-purchase survey work: inspectors and auditors increasingly expect consistent, centralized, time-stamped records rather than fragmented paperwork spread across vessel and office systems.

That said, the real test of any such platform will be how well it integrates with existing fleet management systems and whether shore staff and crews actually adopt the shared workflow rather than treating it as a parallel, box-ticking exercise. Operators considering a move to browser-based voyage planning tools should weigh connectivity requirements at sea, data security for ship-shore exchanges, and how audit logs generated by the system would hold up during a vetting inspection or incident investigation.

MyRA 2.0 is available now through Teledyne Raymarine Commercial.
