Summary

Overview
Global Automatic Identification System Market reached US$ 410.2 Million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 689.4 Million by 2030, growing with a CAGR of 7.7% during the forecast period 2023-2030.
The automatic identification system can provide dynamic, static and journey data on a single ship to many ships in the area as well as neighboring coastal authorities. For example, a 2002 amendment to the Diplomatic Conference on Maritime Security requires ships weighing 300 to 50,000 tons to have automatic identification systems.
Major modifications to international trade laws and regulations and also the evolution of marine transport, have all had an impact on the development of technology required to deal with rising marine traffic. The International Maritime Organization modified the need to carry navigational equipment and mandated that all ships have automated identifying systems in 2000.
During the forecast period, Asia-Pacific is the fastest growing regions in the global automatic identification system market about 1/4th of the market. Rising government rules for AIS deployment in the region are driving market expansion. The Malaysian Southern Region Marine Department published Port Circular No. 02/2021 in February 2021, alerting the maritime community that it may compel all vessels authorized for operation to start their Automatic Identification System (AIS) at times.
Dynamics
Rising Mari Trade and Need for Fleet Management
Shipping firms can operate their fleet in real-time with the use of fleet management tools, allowing ships to sail around any unforeseen weather conditions. Fleet managers can now set alarms with no advance time, allowing ship crews to make quick decisions. With the increasing number of ships, shipping corporations have found it challenging to manage and analyze these enormous fleets as reporting requirements and emission regulations continue to improve.
According to UNCTAD's Review of Maritime Transport 2021 International, maritime shipments fell 3.8% to 10.65 Million metric tons. In early 2021, the world fleet consisted of 99,800 ships of 100 gross metric tons or more, equivalent to 2,134,639,907 DWT (deadweight tonnage) and the global shipping fleet grew by 3% in the year preceding January 1, 2021.
Rising Government Regulations
The government has made necessary regulations for the implementation of AIS to improve ship safety and security. In recent years, sea freight has grown significantly over the world. Globally, significant investments are being made in the marine industry, which has resulted in an increase in demand for AIS, particularly for vessel tracking. Strict government regulation is expected to drive the growth of the market for automatic identification systems.
For example, UK developed a Five-Year Maritime Trade and Investment Plan that focused on five major areas: Green Maritime, Digital Technologies, Autonomous Vessels, Marine Science, Maritime Professional and Business Services. Myanmar also declared the implementation of AIS on its coastal and fishing vessels to improve maritime security. AIS stations are anticipated to be erected at 19 jetties to control AIS and share navigation information, with an AIS range of 48-80 km.
The International Maritime Organization (IMO) directed in 2000 that all ships carry AIS able to automatically communicating ship information to other ships and coastal authorities. The regulation requires AIS to be installed on all ships of 300 gross tonnage or bigger that are participating in international journeys, cargo ships of 500 gross tonnage or larger that are not participating in international voyages and passenger ships of any size.
High Initial Costs
The high initial costs of AIS adoption are a key impediment in the global industry. For data transmission and reception, AIS technology needs both onboard transceivers in for vessels and ground-based stations or satellite equipment. The expense of equipping vessels with AIS transceivers can be major, mainly for smaller vessel operators.
It includes the acquisition of equipment and also the installation, maintenance and training of crew members. Similarly, the installation and maintenance of ground-based AIS equipment, such as coastal and shore stations, is expensive. The initial expenses may prevent smaller businesses and vessel operators from using AIS equipment, limiting its wider adoption.
Segment Analysis
The global automatic identification system market is segmented based class, platform, application and region.
Growing Demand for Fleet Management to Plan and Schedule in Advance
Fleet management are expected to cover a share of around 40.1% of the global market during the forecast period 2023-2030. Ships can communicate with one another via the fleet management system, transmitting vital information and updates. The arrival and departure of ships in preset zones can be planned by the operators. The is especially important while travelling through busy ports and pre-defined zones where they must book slots that are only available for a short time. Shipping companies must pay for these slots and they may have to pay much more if they do not arrive on time.
Companies like Big Ocean Data are enhancing their fleet management solutions with features like a 5-day weather forecast and risk-based routing. As the European Union (EU) plans the forthcoming EU monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV) legislation to monitor emissions, fleet management solutions will be crucial for ships operating in the EU in the future. The fleet management system may decrease the amount of time and effort needed to track speed, fuel consumption, pollution and job statistics.
Geographical Penetration
Growing Promotion and Implementation of AIS in North America
North America is the dominant region in the global automatic identification system market holding more than 1/3rd of the market in 2022. U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) has been a major proponent of AIS acceptance and implementation in North America. USCG has set up the Nationwide Automatic Identification System (NAIS), consisting of AIS receivers and transmitters around U.S.’s coastline and inland waterways. The USCG's dedication to AIS installation underscores North America's market leadership.
Leading AIS technology providers in North America have made major contributions to the market. For example, exactEarth, based in Canada, is a prominent provider of satellite-based AIS products. It run a satellite system that provides real-time vessel tracking data globally. Similarly, firms established in U.S., such as ORBCOMM and Kongsberg Maritime, provide AIS solutions and services, including hardware, software and analytics, to customers in North America and abroad.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, local authorities have prohibited many cargo and passenger ships from docking at ports. As a result, several merchant sailors were stuck on the ship itself. Shipowners were also obliged to pay additional fees because their ships were stuck in territorial waters for an extended length of time. Furthermore, due to the epidemic, ship movement was restricted, resulting in a high number of seafarers reaching the end of their employment contracts and requiring them to be renewed.
Furthermore, to decrease the possibility of COVID-19 spreading, import and export of products and goods have been reduced. Furthermore, because to the epidemic, all shipbuilding and ship repair and maintenance work has been halted. Because of supply chain disruptions and contract terminations to minimize expenses, there was a shortage of raw materials essential for hardware manufacturing. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, all of these issues impacted the growth of the automatic identification system industry.
AI Impact
AI technologies have the potential to improve AIS efficacy and efficiency in a variety of ways. AI-powered automatic identification systems can assist shippers in proactively identifying organizations at high risk of penalty violations before they are listed. By monitoring their fleet and understanding the expense of doing business with high-risk vessels, AI-powered maritime tracking can assist shippers in maintaining their reputations.
The Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) takes these crimes seriously, stating that "the Office of Foreign Assets Control of U.S. Department of the Treasury operates and upholds economic and trade sanctions in accordance with U.S. foreign policy and national security goals with targeted foreign countries, terrorists, international narcotics traffickers, those who involved in activities associated to the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and other threats.
Russia- Ukraine War Impact
The crisis between Russia and Ukraine has heightened concerns about marine security, particularly in the Black Sea region. The usage of AIS is critical in these locations for tracking vessels and improving maritime situational awareness. Governments, international organizations and marine agencies may invest in strengthening their AIS infrastructure and capabilities in order to more efficiently monitor vessel movements, thereby contributing to market growth.
The conflict may have an impact on maritime routes and shipping patterns in the Black Sea region and neighboring waters. As vessel operators negotiate these shifting conditions, the need of AIS for real-time monitoring and collision avoidance grows. Vessel owners and operators may invest in AIS technology to safeguard the safety of their ships and cargoes, thus increasing the AIS market.
