AIS: Difference between Type A & Type B 10 8
Timeline and Growth 2002 IMO SOLAS Mandate IMO mandates vessels over 300GT on international voyages to fit Class A AIS by 2004 2006/7 AIS Standards Committee AIS Standards Committee publishes Type B specification resulting in wide scale installation of AIS for the first time 2010 European Union All EU fishing vessels over 52ft now have to have Class A 2002 100,000 vessels with AIS 2012 250,000 vessels with AIS 2015 USA Introduction of US AIS Mandate: All motorised vessels over 65ft using US inland waterways to have AIS by March 2016 9
Mandate Questions
Vessel Impact? Class A Vs B? Trusted Solutions? McMurdo 11
Creating Operational Value from Mandated Technology
Looking Beyond Location Awareness AIS Mandate will greatly improve inland waterways location awareness Building on that investment with the inclusion of AIS MOB will bring equal benefits from Localised rescue capabilities Commercial workboat adoption of AIS MOB is growing in Europe and already an accepted SAR technology in the US McMurdo AIS Mandate and Operational Value 13
What is AIS MOB? Provide a means of location and tracking AIS MOB alerts a 4 mile radius to your man overboard incident Provide immediate notification to the parent or neighbouring vessels 14
