1 1 AIS-Space… Contributing to global safety and security Presented to Space for Safe and Secure World 13 th ISUAnnual International Symposium 18 February, 2009 Eric Meger, MBA and Jeff Cain, PhD

2 2 COM DEV Proprietary Data AIS Overview A utomatic I dentification S ystem International Maritime Organization (IMO) Ship ID, Position, Course, Speed, other Initially collision avoidance but now used for many applications Generally limited to 50 nm Not designed for reception in space Over 68,000 Ships equipped with transceivers

3 3 Collisions = THE challenge to AIS-S COMDEV solution retains wide field of view

4 4 The key challenge COMDEV performance simulations Commercial AIS receiver Busy Regions of The Oceans

5 5 Comparison with Commercial receiver COMDEVCOMM’L Rx COMDEV COMM’L Rx COMM’L Rx COMDEV 50,000 Ships 10 minute pass 95% Capture Ratio  54 million messages over 60 hours

6 6 Real-World Data Supports Our Simulations Images © 2008 TerraMetrics Image NASA © 2008 Google Commercial Receiver 90 Seconds COMDEV Receiver 90 Seconds

7 7 COM DEV Proprietary Data Google Earth Tour

8 8 COM DEV Proprietary Data Global Solution Requires More Than High Capture Ratio Vessel Refresh Rate Revisit Time (# satellites, field of view) + Downlink latency (#, location of ES’) + Network latency (effective design) All Data must be securely archived and distributed from one global location. Global processing, archive, retrieval, and display software

9 9 COM DEV Proprietary Data Maritime Border Security is key Argentine Fishing Fleet !?

10 10 COM DEV Proprietary Data Who do you warn of threats? Pirate Activity Suspected X

11 11 COM DEV Proprietary Information Driving Needs – Four Key Applications Coastal Security Search and RescueVessel Traffic ManagementCoastal SecurityEnvironmental

12 12 The first fully global view of world ship densities
