Vessel Draught Estimation

Be aware of changes in the draught of collaborative and dark vessels to detect unreported good and commodity transfer in time with ICEYE SAR data.

Estimating draught of suspected vessels, such as oil tankers or cargo ships, after every stop indicates whether the vessel became lighter or heavier. Based on the change detected, the conclusion on unreported good or commodity transfer can be derived. 

With the constellation of small SAR satellites, ICEYE provides reliable data enabling accurate estimation of the vessels draught.
