Why use our Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA) platform?

• National security
  The maritime domain is a critical component of a nation’s security. It includes not only territorial waters but also exclusive economic zones and international waters, all of which need to be monitored and protected against various threats, including piracy, smuggling, terrorism, and hostile naval activities. An MDA platform helps in detecting and responding to these threats promptly.
• Preventing Illegal Activities
  Maritime domain awareness platforms are essential for monitoring and preventing illegal activities at sea, such as drug trafficking, illegal fishing, human trafficking, and environmental violations. This helps in upholding international laws and agreements and ensures the safety and well-being of the global maritime environment.
• Search and Rescue
  MDA platforms provide valuable information for search and rescue operations in cases of maritime accidents, shipwrecks, or distress signals. They enable authorities to locate and assist vessels and individuals in distress quickly and effectively.
• Resource Management
  Managing maritime resources is crucial for a nation’s economy and sustainability. MDA platforms assist in monitoring and regulating activities like fishing, offshore drilling, and shipping to ensure compliance with regulations and prevent overexploitation of marine resources.
• Border Security
  Many countries have extensive coastlines that serve as natural borders. MDA platforms help in monitoring and securing these maritime borders against illegal immigration, smuggling, and other illicit activities.
• Environmental Protection
  The maritime domain is home to diverse ecosystems, and its health is vital for the planet. MDA platforms can be used to detect and respond to environmental disasters like oil spills, ensuring timely containment and mitigation efforts.
• Situational Awareness
  Defense authorities need real-time situational awareness to respond to potential threats quickly. MDA platforms provide up-to-date information on vessel movements, port activities, and other maritime events, enhancing situational awareness and decision-making.
• International Relations
  Effective MDA contributes to international maritime safety and security, fostering positive relations with neighboring countries and international partners. Sharing MDA information can be a form of diplomatic cooperation and trust-building.
• Homeland Defence
  For nations with overseas territories or interests, MDA platforms help in protecting and monitoring these interests, including remote islands, shipping lanes, and offshore resources.
• Modern Technology
  Advancements in satellite technology, radar systems, sonar, and data analytics have made it more feasible to develop comprehensive MDA platforms that can process large volumes of data efficiently and provide valuable insights

Enhanced intelligence via advanced AIS data machine learning

Harnessing global AIS data, we tap into AIS base stations established by governments worldwide which provide public access to a wealth of AIS information.

Over the last two decades, we’ve meticulously collected AIS data for the EU. Our efforts extend to the rest of the globe, amassing a decade’s worth of data. Can you name another player in the market who has collected this much data, capable of harnessing this extensive dataset to generate advanced machine-learning algorithms? Our goal is to deliver the best technically possible AIS data insights.

The greatest worldwide coverage of AIS data

With our solution, you get the greatest AIS data coverage on the market, both in terms of historical data volume and current geographic coverage.

Why does this matter? Because it empowers you to access comprehensive information essential for your operations, as you will be working with continuously updated vessel characteristics, positions, movements, and behaviors, as well as records and alerts of incidents and worldwide ports.

Our aim is to enable you to create genuine ocean intelligence.
