AIS’s Role SAFETY!
Positional ADF LORAN - A LORAN - C GPS DGPS ECS ANSWERS: Where am I? Situational Radar ARPA ANSWERS Where are they? Electronic Navigation Revolution
Automatic Identification System • Answers • Where am I • Where are they • Also Answers • Who are they • Which way are they headed • How fast are they going • and much more
A View From the Bridge • Mariner can choose to integrate AIS information into the bridge management system in a number of ways • ECDIS Overlay • ECS Input • ARPA • PC • One data string - many ways to display

Ship To Ship AIS • Raises safety across the board • Most desired feature • Provides situational presentation • on bridge • Technology exists • Product evolving
Enhanced AIS NON - CG Sources Weather Currents Depth PORTS Etc. CG C2 Node Alerts / Alarms Waterway Info Watchstander “Smart Tree” • Low $ solution to many traffic management issues • Maintain coverage in electronically blind areas • Insert emergency information from a C2 Center • May be integrated as part of NDS • Single Infrastructure /Multi-Mission capability • NOT a VTS but could transition to an emergency VTS • can remotely manage TSS, Maritime sanctuaries Vessel Provides: ID, position, course, heading, speed Vessel Receives: Information on vessels, port data, and hazards in area
VTS/VTIS based on AIS Emergency Info Alerts Vessel Data Processing System Watchstander Position Data Port Stake- holders' Information Radar data* Weather Currents Depth VTC * only where appropriate Vessel Provides: ID, position, course, heading, speed Vessel Receives: Information on vessels, port data, and hazards in area
AIS Standards Status Approved by MSC 5/11/98 N.B. Standards moving much more rapidly than normal.
