Jersey Coastguard

Jersey Coastguard is responsible for safety of life at sea within an area of responsibility spanning 875 square miles.

Challenge

Jersey Coastguard responds to a wide range of incidents at sea. A significant proportion of the large maritime area within the responsibility of Jersey Coastguard was not previously monitored by radar and only a very small percentage was covered by remote cameras.

Solution

Sirius Insight deployed its surveillance capability to a remote site on Jersey’s coast, providing Jersey Coastguard with the precise location of incidents, greatly improving the efficiency and timeliness of search & rescue services.

“Sirius Insight’s remote monitoring station…has greatly improved our Search & Rescue capability by reducing the amount of time it takes to locate a casualty and facilitate their immediate rescue”
