About

IMIS was created as a direct response to the introduction of the ITU-R.M1371-1 specified Automatic Identification System [AIS] technology and the directive issued by the International Maritime Organisation [IMO] that all Safety Of Life At Sea [SOLAS] vessels will be required to install an AIS terminals over a period of time starting in July 2002. The IMO directive has resulted in IMIS creating a Maritime Data Radio Network [MDRN] capable of handling not only the ITU-R.M1371-1 AIS protocol but existing data radio technologies such radio telemetry and other private and public mobile radio solutions.
