Product & engineering
Understand the product.
An Automatic Identification System Market is designed to enable two-way communication between various vessels and onshore-based coastal authorities. The system is capable of providing static, dynamic, and voyage data about a ship to other ships in the vicinity and to nearby coastal authorities.
There are two classes of AIS unit fitted to vessels, Class A and Class B. Class A units are a mandatory fit under the safety of life at sea (SOLAS) convention to vessels above 300 gross tons or which carry more than 11 passengers in International waters. Many other commercial vessels and some leisure craft also fit Class A units. Class B units are currently not a mandatory fit but authorities in several parts of the world are considering this. Class B units are designed for fitting in vessels which do not fall into the mandatory Class A fit category.
