Abstract

Systems and methods for detection and display of marine objects for an aircraft. One example system includes a transceiver configured to communicate with an Automatic Identification System (AIS) server and an electronic controller located within an aircraft. The electronic controller is configured to provide on a display an interface comprising a map representing a travel area. The electronic controller is configured to provide, on the map, a first graphical representation of the aircraft within the travel area. The electronic controller is configured to receive, via the transceiver, marine object data from the AIS server. The electronic controller is configured to periodically update, on the map, a second graphical representation of a first marine object within the travel area based on the marine object data.
