Pole Star’s Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA) solution provides full visibility of your marine assets and logistics, and enables vessel and port activity monitoring, trend identification, and vessel behaviour analysis.
For ship owners, operators, and managers, MDA provides insight for pre-journey planning and ongoing journey checks, crew and cargo safety, business continuity, and competitive advantage, while for financial institutions, MDA enables a granular look at vessel activity for in-depth vessel investigations.
How it works
Vessel Monitoring: Track, monitor, and review the historical movements and ongoing progress of any ship.
Our patented persistent tracking technology combines secure LRIT, VMS, and SSAS data, alongside satellite and terrestrial-based AIS data for a reliable and accurate hybrid track, providing you with comprehensive situational awareness for better and fast decision-making.
Vessel Investigations: Thoroughly investigate a vessel’s real-time, historical, and ongoing journey at a granular level, including ship-to-ship (STS) transfer risk, historical tracks, vessel replay, and ownership details.
MDA can be used to identify: high-risk ports, sanctions zones, dangerous weather conditions, piracy attacks, environmental regulatory zones, and compliant routes.
