How can AIS data be optimally utilised in practice? What information does the system provide - and how reliable is it? In the webinar, yacht expert Sven M. Rutter explains how AIS works, what is important when using it and what opportunities the technology offers for pleasure boat skippers.

  • What advantages does AIS offer on board - and what is needed for it?
  • How can the AIS information be interpreted and used in practice?
  • What do values such as CPA, TCPA, HDG, Range, etc. mean?
  • What display and filter options are available?
  • What alarm and warning functions are available?
  • What are AIS-AtoNs and "Safety Related Messages" and what role do they play?
  • How can AIS improve your own visibility?
  • What is the difference between AIS and radar?
  • How should AIS apps and internet-based services be assessed?
  • How reliable is AIS data overall - and where is healthy scepticism appropriate?
