In the physical navigation process of inland ships,the energy efficiency operation index(EEOI)usually be the average value of a period or several voyages.Compared with ocean-going ships,inland ships are more affected by the navigation environment and the EEOI cannot be directly used to characterize the real-time energy effi-ciency level for ships.Considering solving this problem,this paper designed and developed a real-time energy effi-ciency online monitoring system for inland ships based on embedded development and 4G mobile network technol-ogy.The system realized real-time monitoring of EEOI of inland ships and allows remote monitoring,real-time stor-age,dynamic display and download of the data of energy efficiency and navigation status of the ships through the on-shore data management platform,providing an effective means of monitoring the energy efficiency data in the pro-cess of China's inland ships operation.
