Maritime Traffic Monitoring

Maritime traffic monitoring involves tracking and managing ships and boats across oceans, seas, and ports to ensure safety, security, and efficient navigation. Utilizing satellite systems, radar, AIS (Automatic Identification Systems), and databases, authorities can observe vessel locations, routes, and activities in real-time. This helps prevent accidents, monitor illegal activities like smuggling, and optimize maritime logistics. Think of it as a combined GPS and surveillance network for ships, providing a comprehensive view of maritime movement that supports safe and efficient global trade and security.
