Developing custom computer vision solutions allows for enhanced maritime domain awareness and port detection and protection. By leveraging advanced algorithms and machine learning techniques, these solutions can analyze vast amounts of data from various sources such as satellite imagery, aerial surveillance, and maritime sensors. This comprehensive analysis enables real-time monitoring of boat activities, identification of potential threats, and tracking of illicit or unauthorized vessels. The ability to accurately track boats and their wakes empowers naval forces to maintain a vigilant watch over territorial waters, identify suspicious behaviors, and take timely action to ensure maritime security. By integrating these solutions into existing surveillance systems, port authorities can enhance their ability to respond promptly to any security threats, mitigate risks, and safeguard critical infrastructure.

 Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with computer vision algorithms can autonomously track and monitor boat movements over large areas. This technology enables the collection of valuable data, including vessel trajectories, patterns of life, and identification of potential threats. By integrating these solutions with existing ISR assets, such as maritime patrol aircraft and unmanned maritime systems, the DoD can enhance its situational awareness, improve response times, and gain a tactical advantage in maritime operations.
