SSC and the
Maritime Office in Gdynia, Poland, have signed a
contract regarding upgrade of one maritime surveillance
system. The system, which was developed by SSC, was
installed in 1993 in one of the authority’s aircraft and
will now be upgraded to the latest standard, MSS 6000.
The upgrade is to be completed in early 2010.
The aircraft is used for Poland’s national sea and coast
control but also for the surveillance of the Baltic Sea
on behalf of the Helsinki Commission. Recently, SSC
delivered a new system to Estonia, and this summer, the
first of two systems will be delivered to the Finnish
Border Guard. The new systems increase the capacity for
surveillance of the Baltic Sea and facilitate the
cooperation between the countries in this region. In the
Helsinki Commission, the countries of the Baltic Sea
region cooperate to protect the marine environment from
all sorts of pollution. |
