  2. Automatic identification system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_identification...

    An AIS-equipped system on board a ship presents the bearing and distance of nearby vessels in a radar-like display format. A graphical display of AIS data on board a ship. The automatic identification system (AIS) is an automatic tracking system that uses transceivers on ships and is used by vessel traffic services (VTS).

  3. Automatic Transmitter Identification System (marine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_Transmitter...

    This contrasts to the Automatic identification system (AIS) used globally on ships that transmit continuously. A short post-transmission message is sent by the radio with the vessel identity and is in the form of an encoded call sign or Maritime Mobile Service Identity , starting with number "9" and the three country-specific maritime ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Navigational_aid

    AtoNs can be integrated with automatic identification system (AIS). AIS transmitted form an actual aid (buoy, lighthouse etc.) is termed a "real AIS AtoN". [11] If it is impractical to equip the AtoN with an AIS transponder an AIS shore station can be assigned to transmit AIS messages on behalf of the AtoN. This is known as a "synthetic ATON".

  5. NMEA 2000 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NMEA_2000

    NMEA 2000, abbreviated to NMEA2k or N2K and standardized as IEC 61162-3, is a plug-and-play communications standard used for connecting marine sensors and display units within ships and boats.

  6. Blue sign - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_sign

    The presence and status of the blue sign is transmitted by the ship's Inland-Automatic Identification System (Inland-AIS) transponder to other vessels. The status of the sign is transmitted using two bits of the "regional application flags"/"special manoeuvre field" in the AIS position reports. [8] This must be transmitted every ten seconds. [9]

  7. Search and rescue transponder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_and_rescue_transponder

    A standard SART 9 GHz radar transponder, produced by Jotron, on board a Norwegian ferry. The unit is 251 mm high. A search and rescue transponder (SART) is a self-contained, waterproof transponder intended for emergency use at sea. These devices may be either a radar-SART, or a GPS-based AIS-SART (automatic identification system SART).

  8. Automatic radar plotting aid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_radar_plotting_aid

    A typical shipboard ARPA/radar system. A marine radar with automatic radar plotting aid (ARPA) capability can create tracks using radar contacts. [1] [2] The system can calculate the tracked object's course, speed and closest point of approach [3] (CPA), thereby knowing if there is a danger of collision with the other ship or landmass.

  9. AIS-SART - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AIS-SART

    An AIS-SART is a self-contained radio device used to locate a survival craft or distressed vessel by sending updated position reports using a standard Automatic Identification System (AIS) class-A position report. The position and time synchronization of the AIS-SART are derived from a built in GNSS receiver (e.g. GPS). [1]
