Integrated Maritime Surveillance Systems

To fill the emerging international need for coastal surveillance, Raytheon Canada, in collaboration with the Canadian government, has developed an Integrated Maritime Surveillance (IMS) System. IMS is an economical, shore-based system providing continuous, all-weather surveillance of the 200 nmi Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). Surveil- lance is accomplished by combining four key technologies: a) Long-Range HF Surface-Wave Radar (HFSWR); b) Automatic Dependent Surveillance (ADS) Systems; c) Other sensor systems; and d) Multiple-Sensor Data Fusion and displays.
