MarinePlus is a geospatial maritime platform designed to support vessel monitoring, maritime domain awareness, traffic analysis, search and rescue operations, and regulatory oversight within a unified operational environment.
The platform consolidates maritime information from multiple monitoring systems and presents it through a common geographic interface, enabling maritime authorities and operational centers to monitor activities across territorial waters and shipping routes.
Maritime Data Ecosystem
MarinePlus integrates data from multiple maritime monitoring sources to provide a comprehensive operational picture.
Vessel Tracking Sources
- Coastal AIS Stations
- Satellite AIS (SAT-AIS)
- Long Range Identification and Tracking (LRIT)
- Vessel Traffic Services (VTS)
- Vessel Monitoring Systems (VMS)
External Maritime Information Sources
- Vessel registries
- Regulatory databases
- Maritime information services
- External vessel-information repositories
The platform continuously consolidates information from these sources to support monitoring, investigation, and operational analysis.
Operational Information Layers
MarinePlus organizes maritime information through a structured layer architecture.
1. Vessel Layers
- Tankers
- Cargo vessels
- Passenger vessels
- Tugs
- Search and Rescue vessels
- Specialized maritime vessels
Each category can be visualized independently to support operational monitoring and traffic analysis.
2. Fleet Layers
- Organizational Fleet
- Personal Fleet
- Targeted Vessels
These layers enable operators to monitor priority vessels and maintain customized operational views.
3. Maritime Infrastructure Layers
- AIS Stations
- Ports and Terminals
- Oil Platforms
- Maritime Facilities
4. Maritime Mapping Layers
Base Maps
- OpenStreetMap
- Google Maps
- Satellite Imagery
Nautical Charts
- Electronic Navigational Charts
- Primar Charts
- Admiralty Charts
- Official Nautical Charts
Analytical Maps
- Traffic Density Maps
- Waterway Analysis Maps
- Coverage Maps
