Concept of Operations¶
AISCOT can operate in two different modes, as described in detail below:
- AIS Over-the-air (RF)
- AIS Aggregator (AISHUB)
AIS Over-the-air Operation (RF)¶

Receive AIS data from a VHF AIS receiver, such as the Megwatt dAISy+. From there AIS can be decoded by AIS Dispatcher or AIS-catcher and forwarded to AISCOT to be transformed to CoT and transmitted to TAK.
AIS Aggregator Operation (AISHUB.com)¶

Receive AIS data from the AISHUB service. Requires a subscription to AISHUB.
