Maritime Reconnaissance & Surveillance Technology 2017 to address safety and protection of international waters
The agenda has been released and registration is now open for Maritime Reconnaissance and Surveillance Technology 2017 which will take place on 30-31 January 2017 in Rome, Italy, SMi said in a press release. Since 2016 the myriad of threats facing maritime nations has not abated, mass migration and terrorist infiltration has plagued nations across the globe and is particularly poignant in the Mediterranean and Asia-Pacific Region where maritime traffic is particularly heavy.
Therefore militaries and civil agencies must be able to monitor traffic all the while protecting their maritime assets from external risks and this is accomplished by utilizing advanced technologies from platform sensors to unmanned systems and space-based assets which are constantly going through upgrades and advances in sophistication.
This year will feature an unrivalled military speaker line-up who will discuss how to maximise maritime situational awareness capabilities through thought provoking presentations and panel discussions.
The 2017 line-up includes: Italian Navy, Italian Coast Guard, Italian Air Force, EU Naval Force, US Naval Forces Europe, Belgian Navy, Portuguese Navy, Royal Air Force, French Navy, Israeli Navy, Finnish Navy, German Navy, C-SIGMA, European Maritime Safety Agency and many more…
“These speakers represent the most senior collection of Maritime Surveillance and Reconnaissance Experts across Europe and the surrounding regions and it is a great honour to be working with them all.” – Rear Admiral (Ret’d) Anthony Rix, Conference Chairman, Former Flag Officer Sea Training, Royal Navy.
