Spire Maritime AIS data provides shore-side authorities with a better understanding of the who, why, what, and where, all of which provide comprehensive risk and vulnerability analysis for Search and Rescue resource planning
Maritime AIS data continues to grow in importance as a powerful aid in Search and Rescue (SAR) operations, as this data facilitates a rapid, targeted response to distress notifications. Spire AIS data pinpoints the last known position, course, heading, and speed of the vessel in distress.
In search and rescue situations, Spire AIS data translates into very real benefits such as:
Authorities can now quickly confirm and identify other vessels in the SAR area, reducing response time and ultimately saving lives
First responders on the scene are easily tracked as resources are focused to the proper SAR area
Proactive notice can be given to the SAR coordinator of any ships entering remote coverage zones, preventing SAR incidents
