“…According to the AHP evaluation results, "Coastal Radar Systems" stand out as the most important alternative for sustainable maritime surveillance of a critical coastal facility (Table 5). This result is in line with other studies in the literature [24,25,28]. Coastal radar systems are very important and widely used technologies for contact detection in maritime surveillance activities.…”

“…Today, the capabilities of optical sensors are evolving day by day with the technological advancements in this field. Although different parameters such as the characteristics of the contact, weather conditions, day/night conditions, and the location and altitude where the optical sensors are deployed significantly affect the contact detection and identification range, it is reported that optical systems that can provide images up to 20 nm are used in maritime surveillance activities [28,47]. In general, most optical surveillance system manufacturers specify in their product documentation that human detection up to 3 nm and vehicle detection up to 10 nm can be realized through the deployment of electro-optical and thermal cameras.…”

In today’s world, wherein more than 80% of world trade is carried out by maritime routes, the safety and security of the seas where this trade takes place is of vast importance for nations and the international community. For this reason, ensuring the sustainable safety and security of the seas has become an integral part of the mission of all maritime-related entities. Using big data extracted from the seas and maritime activities into meaningful information with artificial intelligence applications and developing applications that can be used in maritime surveillance will be of great importance for augmenting maritime safety and security. In this article, data sources which can be used by a maritime surveillance system based on big data and artificial intelligence technologies and which can be established around sensitive sea areas and critical coastal facilities, are identified and a model proposal using this maritime big data is put forward.

“…We have observed that the combination of AIS with radar systems has limitations, particularly in collecting the tracking data of ships that do not have AIS equipment, as well as in detecting small targets. Several studies suggest that cameras are promising candidates for complementing existing surveillance systems [24,[31][32][33].…”

In recent years, maritime traffic has increased, especially in seaborne trade. To ensure safety, security, and environmental protection, various systems have been deployed, often combining data for improved effectiveness. One key application of this combined data is tracking targets at sea, where the Automatic Identification System (AIS) and X-band marine radar are crucial. Recently, there has been growing interest in using visual data from cameras to enhance tracking. This has led to the development of several tracking algorithms based on image processing. While much of the existing literature addresses data fusion, there hasn’t been much focus on why integrating image processing systems is important given the existence of the other systems. In our paper, we aim to analyze these surveillance systems and highlight the benefits of integrating image processing systems. Our main goal is to show how this integration can improve maritime security, offering practical insights into enhancing safety and protection at sea.

“…These approaches have demonstrated improvements in the detection task but are also found to produce many artefacts that either require hand-crafted suppression methods or are immutable in their final results, rendering the approach insufficient for deployment. For a detailed discussion, a reader is referred to [35].…”
