MARCONNECT project introduces the Vessel-Connected Services (VCS) - a disruptive solution that transforms civilian vessels into active contributors to a real-time, integrated maritime surveillance network.
By securely and voluntarily sharing their outward-looking sensor data (e.g. radar, sonar) with Coast Guard Authorities, civilian vessels become valuable assets in enhancing maritime situational awareness. In return, vessel owners gain access to tailored third-party services of their interest and real-time connectivity, creating a synergetic ecosystem.
The VCS solution leads to a significant expansion of maritime surveillance coverage, strengthened ability to detect and respond to maritime threats, complementing existing maritime intelligence services.
