AIS is crucial for collision Avoidance
Free computer nav apps such as OpenCPN or qtVlm, and other commercial apps such as Coastal Explorer, Expedition, and Time Zero provide valuable vessel ID and closest point of approach (CPA) data using dAISy signals. Samples in the More details link below.

Far superior to secondhand sources
Live AIS from a dAISy is far superior to internet AIS available on mobile devices. Those data are dangerously delayed and unreliable.

For smaller vessels
dAISy is a practical solution for smaller vessels without console electronics and limited power.

For racing and chartering
Ideal for racing and charter skippers who travel to different boats. With a small stubby antenna you are prepared to add AIS safety to any vessel you sail on. All fits unnoticeably in your laptop case.

Take part in global AIS reporting
Living near the coast or navigable rivers, the dAISy is well suited for reporting local ship traffic to services like MarineTraffic, FleetMon, AISHub or Pocket Mariner who then distribute the data on websites giving you credit for your reporting.
