Space AIS Data
What is S-AIS?
AIS (Automatic Identification System): a VHF radio ship-to-ship message exchange system that allows ships and surveillance systems to know the identity, status, position and course of the different vessels at sea.
AIS transponders automatically broadcast key information from maritime vessels by radio to other vessels and ports. Kinéis is an S-AIS (satellite AIS) data provider and works with its partners that provide added value services based on these data.
Why is it complementary
to terrestrial AIS?
The short range of AIS terrestrial signals limits its utility to coastal areas and vessel to vessel collision avoidance. In complement to AIS terrestrial signals, Kinéis provides a high-performance S-AIS service via its satellites and without any infrastructure required on the ground. This permits the collection of AIS messages from maritime vessels, enabling vessel monitoring worldwide. This includes international waters non accessible by terrestrial AIS.
Why choose Kinéis?
Kinéis offers a high-performance service that provides the most reliable S-AIS data on the market, 24/7, even in high-traffic areas, to keep track of all maritime activities worldwide.
Detection of Category A ships up to 100% in dense areas
Kinéis AIS’ solution provides a high-performance system which includes cutting-edge technology with multi antenna to manage colliding AIS Signals. This allows you to receive AIS messages, even from dense areas such as Southeast Asia or the Mediterranean Sea making Kinéis the entity with the best detection rate of the market for vessels in dense areas.
Anti-spoofing functionality
Our anti-spoofing functionality allows the control of the GPS position of a vessel and the calculation of an independent localization via our constellation.
This permits an integral monitoring of the position provided, even if the AIS message does not include valid or correct GPS data.
AIS: an infinity of applications
Defense and Security
Our real-time maritime data helps in smarter decision making.
Maritime data also empowers authorities in risk and vulnerability, in rescue at sea and in managing the traffic.
Detection of suspicious behaviors
Our data helps to establish protection measures against illegal fishing and can also help in the surveillance of clandestine migration, transshipment and smuggled products or hydrocarbon deballasting. The S-AIS data also helps in preserving ecosystems and identifying breaches in protected or sensitive areas.
Fleet management and supply chain
S-AIS data is crucial in running an efficient fleet and ensuring the safety of crew and vessel, as well as in minimizing the impact of supply chain disruptions by monitoring logistics flows.
Analysis of maritime data
Whether you need global data on the world’s shipping and cargo location for financial analysis, scientific data or data for litigation management (insurance), S-AIS can provide essential information for these uses.
