Abstract

This paper was the basis of a presentation given on 9 November 2004 at Church House, London during the Institute's NAV 04 Conference. The author argues that AIS has been proven as a valuable aid to safe navigation, but requires comprehensive training to ensure its proper and effective use. Furthermore, he supports those concerned that using AIS in support of “homeland security” will make ships more vulnerable to attack.
