Autonomous Maritime Surveillance Systems Symposium
This Symposium will
present Technologies
capable of supporting
Australia’s challenge
in securing its
islands, territories
and oceans, which
comprise a total
area of 21,960,092
km2, with coastlines
and estuaries exceeding
73,926km
in length.
With a population of just 21
million people and as few
as 2 people per square kilometre
(with 90% of the population
being along the east and south
east coastlines of the continent),
the vast majority of Australia’s
western and northern
coastlines are extremely vulnerable
to incursions as a result
of regional conflict, natural disasters,
and global economic
instability.
In response, the Australian
and regional Governments are
investing in the operational
evaluation, trialling and acquisition
of the latest Autonomous
Maritime Surveillance Systems
and Technologies – not only for
defence purposes – but also for
broad area surveillance and
critical coastal security.
Key objectives are to reduce
actual and potential illegal immigration,
the trafficking of
drugs, weapons and illicit substances,
illegal fishing, infrastructure
security, as well as
law enforcement, disaster recovery,
oceanographical, geophysical,
meteorological and
environmental monitoring.
From a national security perspective,
the Australian Government’s
new Defence White
Paper and Defence Capability
Plan, both identify maritime
and airborne stand-off ISR and
unmanned systems capabilities
as priority requirements.
The Defence White Paper stated,
“As a result of these priorities,
the ADF of 2030 will need
to be a more potent force in
certain areas, particularly
undersea warfare & anti-submarine
warfare (ASW), surface maritime
warfare (including air defence
at sea), air superiority,
strategic strike, special forces,
Intelligence Surveillance & Reconnaissance
(ISR), and cyber warfare.
It is the Government’s judgement
that these are the crucial
areas which require particular
attention to secure our unique
strategic interests.”
In response – and with the view
to providing exhibitors with the
opportunity to promote and
create awareness of relevant
technologies, products and capabilities
– Maritime Australia Limited
has organised an Autonomous
Maritime Surveillance Systems
Symposium & Showcase at
PACIFIC2010.
This informative international Symposium and
associated Showcase will highlight the latest
technology in maritime intelligence surveillance,
reconnaissance and operational response. It will
also feature the application of autonomous active
and passive surveillance systems, complemented
by unmanned vehicle systems for the protection of
port, littoral coastline and off-shore assets, as well
as maritime and coastal surveillance, monitoring
and remote sensing.
The Symposium and Showcase will be a focal point
at PACIFIC2010 and will provide participants with
an opportunity to examine the development and
application of autonomous surveillance technology
systems equipment and capabilities.
