AIS Radar
The Automatic Identication System (AIS) enables you to identify and track
other vessels, and alerts you to area trafc.
When connected to an external AIS device, the chartplotter can show some
AIS information about other vessels that are within range, equipped with a
transponder, and are actively transmitting AIS information. The information
reported for each vessel includes the Maritime Mobile Service Identity
(MMSI), location, GPS speed, GPS heading, time that has elapsed since the
last position of the vessel was reported, nearest approach, and time to the
nearest approach.
The AIS Radar screen provides a pictorial representation of the AIS vessels
around you, similar to a radar display, and a list of those vessels.
