11 detectors · normalized

Eleven ways to see
what shouldn't be happening.

Every position, every track, every second. The behavioral detectors run continuously and report normalized confidence scores so the triage queue stays ranked by priority, not by detector.

Dark transit

AIS continuity

Identifies vessels going dark — turning AIS off mid-transit through monitored waters. Weighted by prior dwell and geofence proximity.

ais_gapdark_vesselzone_lingering

AIS spoofing

Identity integrity

Detects MMSI swaps, impossible jumps, and inconsistent static fields. Flags vessels whose reported identity doesn't match kinematic history.

identity_changekinematic_implausibility

Loitering

Behavioral

Course-change intensity formula catches active loitering distinct from anchorage. Speed threshold separates idle hulls from surveillance patterns.

low_speedcourse_variance

Rendezvous

Contact fusion

Two vessels closing to within transfer range, one of them dark. Often precedes ship-to-ship transfers or sanctions evasion.

proximitydark_pair

Geofence breach

Zone enforcement

Entry into restricted, exclusion, or sensitive zones. Configurable per sector — Taiwan median line, Hormuz TSS, Azov exclusion.

zone_entrytss_violation

Speed anomaly

Kinematic

Departures from the vessel's own historical speed baseline, not static thresholds. Captures both unusual sprints and unexplained drifts.

speed_outlierbaseline_drift

Heading anomaly

Kinematic

Erratic heading changes inconsistent with vessel type and traffic density. Tuned to distinguish fishing from evasion.

heading_variancetype_mismatch

Route deviation

Path analysis

Track divergence from declared destination or typical corridor. Weighted by distance-to-detour and time-off-path.

detourdest_mismatch

Kinematic implausibility

Physics gate

Positions that imply impossible speeds or heading changes between reports — a common signature of spoofing and replayed tracks.

impossible_transitreplay

Statistical outlier

Population context

Per-vessel baselines combined with peer-group distributions flag behaviors that look normal in isolation but not against similar hulls.

peer_outlierbaseline_deviation

Collision risk

CPA analysis

Closest-point-of-approach forecasts across tracks. Surfaces near-miss geometries before they materialize — also a proxy for coerced encounters.

03How they compose

Signals fuse into a single risk score per vessel.

Each detector emits a confidence between 0 and 1. Scores are weighted by sector context — a geofence breach in Hormuz carries more weight than the same breach in the Channel — then combined into a normalized 0–100 risk score with MARSEC tiering.
