Automatic Identification System (AIS) is a marine tracking system used to identify and locate vessels by electronically exchanging data with nearby vessels. Data is transmitted with a higher frequency than standard marine VHF, making a dedicated AIS antenna a necessity to ensure maximum performance and safety of yourself and others at sea.
