China Beihai Navigation Support Center and Dalian Maritime University developed the ‎Automatic Identification System (AIS) to intelligently identify and accurately locate ships with abnormal dynamics and static information, such as name, speed and call signs, as well as base stations that broadcast malicious information. | CGTN | Facebook

Automatic identification system (AIS) transponders help monitor ship activity at sea. Vessels that do not want to be found can manipulate their #AIS signatures and hide their true locations, or simply turn their transponders off and go dark. ICEYE SAR satellite imagery can help counteract AIS spoofing and reveal dark ships. It supports the detection of unreported vessels and suspicious ship-to-ship transfers by mapping and monitoring vessel presence, size, and location. Learn more about ICEYE Oc
