NAIS will process (e.g., validate,
filter, etc.) and store the data. Some
NAIS functions may be implemented by
enhancing existing systems. These
systems, while not part of NAIS, are
included in the context of the systems’
operations. Primarily, it is expected that
these systems (e.g., Ports and Waterways
Safety System [PAWSS], Sector
Command Centers [SCC], Maritime
Information Safety and Law
Enforcement [MISLE], Vessel Traffic
Services [VTS]) will provide data
processing functions (e.g., vessel
tracking correlation, intelligence
processing, anomaly detection) and user
interfaces necessary to meet all the
requirements for fully using AIS data.
Some users of NAIS capabilities (e.g.,
Deepwater assets and other government
agencies) may indirectly access AIS data
via other systems.
NAIS will complement other
surveillance and intelligence systems
greatly aiding the essential process of
identifying vessels requiring further
investigation and action. NAIS
information will be displayed in the
USCG national maritime COP and
shared, along with correlated data and
intelligence as appropriate, with other
DHS and federal agencies. Unclassified
portions of the COP will also be
available to local port partners in
support of security and safety
operations. This information will be
invaluable to agencies, such as Customs
and Border Patrol (CBP), Immigration
and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and the
Transportation Security Administration
(TSA), as it will provide real-time
location data on all major cargo and
other commercial vessels in the
maritime domain.
