Abstract :
The paper analyzes possibility and the procedure of the ship hull position and deformations calculation in sailing conditions on the wavy sea. The bases for the procedures are the inclination data obtained using the hull measuring point network. Each measuring point consists of three digital inclinometers directed to measure longitudinal and transversal angles of inclination. One inclinometer is directed to measure the inclination angle in the longitudinal vertical plane, the second measures the angle in the longitudinal horizontal plane and the third measures the angle in vertical transversal plane. The measuring network consists of several measuring points connected in local area wired or wireless net and positioned according the ship hull structure.
