Control of Maritime Traffic in the Canary Islands

Abstract

In the present article, we present the Paper corresponding to the research project, “Infrastructure for the Control of Maritime Traffic in the Canary Islands: Island of El Hierro, A Pilot Project”.
We will analyse the existing means in the Canary Islands, we will make a forecast of the material and method necessary to pick up the signals from vessels transiting the Island waters, their consequent retransmission to a Control Centre away from the place or places where receptors and their corresponding antennas are installed, and the system we deem best for presenting the information.
