The Korea Coast Guard will establish a maritime security planning team, a venture-type organization, and launch a maritime information center to build a wide-area maritime surveillance network using advanced technologies such as satellites and artificial intelligence.
The wide-area marine monitoring network refers to a marine observation system that monitors and predicts abnormalities that occur in the vast waters of Korea, 4.5 times larger than land, and takes preemptive measures. The Korea Coast Guard are protecting the sea 365 days a year by cracking down on illegal fishing by foreign fishing boats and managing marine safety, but they are limited security forces, so real-time surveillance of the entire sea area of South Korea is virtually impossible.
In response, the maritime police will establish a maritime security planning team and establish a mari time information center to monitor the patrol vessels around the clock for the next two years using sate llites and aircraft will be used to collect information.
It also aims to minimize damage to the public by efficiently deploying security forces through compre hensive analysis of various types of marine information and developing strategic maritime security that can take preemptive measures such as shortening on-site response times.
