Description: Vessel communication refers to the exchange of information between vessels and shore facilities, such as ports and maritime control centers. This type of communication is essential for ensuring safety and efficiency in maritime operations. It includes the transmission of data regarding the vessel’s position, speed, course, and status, as well as information about weather conditions, maritime traffic, and safety alerts. Communication is conducted through various means, such as radio, satellites, and digital communication systems, allowing ships to coordinate their movements and respond to emergency situations. The effectiveness of this communication is crucial for preventing accidents, optimizing routes, and facilitating port logistics, thereby contributing to the smooth flow of maritime trade and safety in international waters.
