About

MCA - Maritime and Coastguard Agency awarded a contract to Kongsberg Norcontrol IT Ltd for the replacement of a satellite-based oil spill and vessel detection service, following the loss of access to the EMSA SafeSeaNet Ecosystem Graphical User Interface and CleanSeaNet service due to Brexit.

The contract, valued at AUD 1,572,467, covers the provision of 60 satellite images per month for two years, delivered in Near Real Time (within 45 minutes of acquisition) into the existing MCA maritime domain awareness software, C-Scope.

It also includes image analysis and generation of alert notifications and reports, as well as pollution source identification using historic vessel position data (AIS), which requires further development of the C-Scope Traffic Analysis (CSTA) tool.
