AIS Data Profiling For Error Analysis In Indian Ocean Region (IOR)

The Project discusses the importance of the Automatic Identification System (AIS) in enhancing safety and efficiency in maritime navigation. It highlights the potential negative impact of fast mandatory implementation of AIS without adequate research on its use, citing examples of AIS-assisted collisions. The need for specific dominant…

Acoustic Method of Dark Ship Detection In the Indian Ocean Region Using Low Frequency Spatio-temporal Noise Map (software)

This research note highlights the challenges of detecting and tracking “dark ships” involved in illegal activities within a nation’s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), particularly in the Indian Ocean region. These ships often turn off their Automatic Identification System…

Collision Avoidance In Inland Waterways By Using AIS Data

Collisions in Inland waterways represent the biggest threat to inland water transportation. Its occurrence is very infrequent but has terrible consequences that make its avoidance a very imperative factor. This work aims to identify all the techniques that have been developed so far…

Automating Static AIS Data

This research note talks about the Automatic Identification System (AIS), which was developed to track vessel movements and has proven quite effective in dealing with a wide range of problems ranging from fleet monitoring and collision to detecting…
