Features
Satellite AIS Coverage
Improve fleet monitoring and increase operational efficiency
Track any fleet around the globe using Satellite AIS data, which is seamlessly fused with our coastal data. This powerful combination gives a unique presentation of the global maritime traffic and provides position report updates for the global merchant fleet even when in deep sea and remote areas. Having partnered with Orbcomm, the leading Satellite AIS provider, we leverage the next generation OG2 satellites and provide position updates with latency as low as a few minutes for mid-ocean voyages.
Ship owners and operators use the service to monitor their fleets or even the competition, improve situational awareness and increase efficiency. Charterers and logistics professionals acquire better visibility into expected arrival times and improve their operational effectiveness. Ship suppliers use the service to monitor their customers during cross ocean voyages and improve responsiveness and service quality.
