Abstract

The Kalman filter can be applied in the most diverse areas of knowledge, for example, medicine, agriculture, social sciences, computing, etc. The Kalman filter is a recursive tool that can be used under the aim of Navigation and Integration Systems. We make a brief approach to the derivation of a Kalman filter dividing the work into two parts. By first, a Kalman filter is used to simulate different situations analyzing the “response” of the filter considering distinct cases for distinct states of the shop motor; at second, a specific Kalman filter is built to filter the fuel consumption data collected directly from the on-board records of a ship from Portuguese Republic.
