exactTrax helps to enhance vessel safety and address global overfishing
exactTrax will have real-time vessel tracking capability
CAMBRIDGE, ON, June 1, 2017 /CNW/ - exactEarth Ltd.
("exactEarth" or the "Company") (TSX: XCT), a leading provider of Satellite AIS data services, announces that the Company's small
vessel tracking solution, exactTrax™, is now available for integration with all AIS transceiver manufacturers. A number of
different exactTrax-enabled transceivers are already available, which enables customers to choose the most appropriate hardware
for their small vessel tracking needs.
exactTrax is a secure, proven and cost-effective solution for providing users with a complete picture of small vessel activity
in their maritime domain. exactTrax continually monitors the millions of small vessels navigating the world's oceans and
waterways, and supports SOLAS (Safety of Life at Sea), fisheries management, maritime surveillance and a host of other
applications and services designed to enhance domestic security and vessel safety, and to minimize global overfishing.
exactTrax satellite messages are encoded prior to transmission, and are therefore transmitted securely, regardless of hardware
selection. On reception, the messages are decoded by exactEarth and then made available to the user.
"Our announcement today will broaden the availability of exactTrax to more potential users worldwide," said Peter Mabson, CEO of exactEarth. "In addition, with the recent launch of exactView RT Powered by Harris,
exactTrax users will soon benefit from real-time small vessel positional updates, which will further enhance the security, safety
and economic benefits of our service."
All exactTrax-enabled transceiver platforms support standard AIS SART functionality in case of emergency, and transmit
standard AIS Class B position reports for detection by terrestrial AIS networks and nearby shipping, or when required by an
administration.
