SEARCH AND RESCUE (SAR) MISSIONS
Why do you need Inertial Navigation Systems for Search and Rescue Missions?
Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) are invaluable for maritime Search and Rescue missions, ensuring accurate navigation and coordination even when GPS is compromised. Here's why INS is essential for SAR operations:
- Dynamic environmental conditions – Coastal areas often have GPS-spoofing risk, signal reflection, or jamming.
- Distributed sensor platforms – Boats, drones, and sensors all rely on INS for integrated situational awareness.
- Persistent patrol routes – INS allows repeated path tracking along coastlines for extended surveillance.
- Interoperability with ASVs/USVs – Shared INS data enhances fleet coordination across disparate platforms.
- Harsh maritime conditions – INS maintains navigation integrity despite waves, tides, and vessel motion.
- Trigger-based alerts – Accurate geofencing with INS supports prompt notification of intrusions or anomalies.
Inertial Navigation Systems enhance Search and Rescue operations by delivering precision navigation when GPS is unreliable or obstructed. These systems are vital for reducing response time and increasing mission effectiveness during life-saving maritime deployments.
