Ports, open water areas and coastlines constitute a particular target for terrorism and other criminal activities because of their economic importance but also because they are very difficult to secure.
PORT SURVEILLANCE
Challenges specific to Ports include:• Kilometres of open water to secure, very wide areas
• Possible important traffic around the monitored zone
• Exposure to severe conditions: fog, wind
• A passive, undetectable system is often imperative
• Integration with COP workstation and display
• Detection & tracking of boats undetectable by radars (RHIBS, small wooden boats...)
• Detection and tracking of swimmers
• Detection of small boats in rough sea
