AIS, Automatic Identification System
Accessories are those accessories that you may require to integrate your AIS
system to the marine electronics on your vessel.
The Automatic Identification System (AIS) is a system used by ships and Vessel Traffic Services (VTS) principally for identification and locating vessels. AIS provides a means for ships to electronically exchange ship data including: identification, position, course, and speed, with other nearby ships and VTS stations. This information can be displayed on a screen or an ECDIS display. AIS is intended to assist the vessel's
watchstanding
officers and allow maritime authorities to track and monitor vessel movements.
