What is the secret of black vessels of the sea.

Mysterious Dark Vessels Found in Ocean: One third of the earth is surrounded by sea i.e. water. These sea are full of immense possibilities to spread our huge chest on our earth. But the organization that controls the laws of the sea and oversee the international sea border has expressed concern about many dark blocks found in the sea. In fact, many dark vessels found in the sea have expressed concern over it by scientists and security agencies. Nowadays the number of sea dark vessels is continuously increasing, which remain a matter of concern. After all, what are these dark vessels, how are the secrets hidden in them, let’s know.

Sea is very important for earth and humanity. Its routes are very important not only for global trade but also for food resources and energy. However, many deep secrets are also hidden in the sea and there are many activities in the sea, which are dangerous for us and are hidden from the eyes of the world. According to a report by Earth.com, “Dark Vessels” has been reported in a recent study. These are dark vessels, ie ships that are used to avoid public tracking systems. Illegal work is done by this. Due to its increasing number, serious concerns are arising about transparency, stability and maritime security.

Limits of traditional tracking systems
The activities of ships have been tracked in the sea for a long time through the automatic identification system (AIS). This is very important for safety. However, it is useful. But it has important flaws. There are many ships such as dark vessels, involved in illegal fishing, smuggling and human trafficking, deliberately turn off their tracking systems to keep hidden. A study by the Global Fishing Watch published in Nature found that 72% to 76% of the world’s industrial fishing ships and from 30% cargo and energy ships do not appear on public tracking systems.

Dark vessels a matter of concern
The invisibility of ships with dark vessels is a serious problem. It becomes difficult to implement maritime laws, protect the fish population and maintain marine security. When so many activities disappear from the eye, the practice of illegal and harmful practices can continue.

Help is being taken from AI
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and satellite are being used to deal with this problem of dark vessels. The Global Fishing Watch is analyzing two petabyte data seaming the Sentinel-1 satellites of the European Space Agency. It is being tracked with great accuracy, only then information about these dark vessels is available. 97% dark vessels are being identified through AI. 90% of fishing vessels will also be identified.

Transparency strict important
Global Fishing Watch said that through AI, we can strengthen the maritime administration and can curb each illegal activities here. As human activities are increasing in marine areas, the need for better monitoring, accountability and global cooperation is also increasing. This study has taken a significant step towards the more sustainable and transparent future of the oceans by highlighting the hidden network of dark vessels.
