MARITIME INTELLIGENCE

SHIPDETECTION.eu

SHIPDETECTION.EU

Delivering actionable intelligence for any vessel

Shipdetection.eu (legal name Lelieur BV) is consortium lead of Copernicus Blue, a Horizon 2020 project that is composed of three companies. Together NSAS.aero, Vake.ai and Shipdetection.eu deliver near real-time vessel detections of non-cooperative and suspect ships to support customs and fisheries inspections as well as Coast Guard rescue missions and offshore asset protection surveillance. 

By using automated algorithms in satellite imagery, Radio Frequency and AIS data together with vessel databases it is now possible to collect intelligence and evidence of any activity happening near ports, shorelines, around submarine cables and offshore installations such as wind parks.  

Through continuous monitoring and early warning alerts we provide a fast response by organizing guided plane surveillance with long range video streaming over a satellite connection.

UNLEASHING AI ON SATELLITE IMAGERY, RF AND AIS DATA ​

For fast response by organizing guided plane surveillance

guidance of airplanes and drone patrols

A platform for deep maritime insight, producing live alerts of high-risk vessels, and historical analysis of satellite imagery to track the past locations and activities of vessels for potential proof for prosecution. 

Artificial intelligence and data fusion of SAR, optical satellite imagery, satellite Radio Frequency (RF) surveillance and AIS are used for hotspot detection and guidance on where this activity is happening by Vake and Shipdetection.eu. 

Whereas the inspection, reconnaissance and in-situ video collection are a part of the operational services being delivered by the fleet of North Sea Aviation Services (NSAS) DA62 and DA42 MPP surveillance aircrafts.

vake.aI - processing multispectral satellite images

We use machine learning to automatically detect ships in satellite images. The result of our sole maritime focus is in a specialized algorithm capable of generating training data. This makes us uniquely flexible in terms of data source, scalability, and the degree of human verification. Creating one-of-a kind maritime insight suited to your needs.

Shipdetection.EU​ - Modularised API's

Enhancing marine plane and drone operations with oversight of AIS and VMS signals, flying assets and dark vessels alerts for an all-in-one platform to have safe real-time, quick operational decisions and increased efficiency.

Marine intelligence API as add-on for virtual drone control towers allowing AIS and satellite detected vessels geofencing, automated tracking and alerts, all visualised in a GIS interface.

Specialised in AIS and vessel database cross-referencing, Blockchain DLT decentralized databases and payment systems.
