ABSTRACT:
A system for collecting and distributing maritime data includes a vessel configured to transmit a signal representative of a current location of the vessel or an expected location of the vessel; a computer network including one or more databases, each of which includes one or more zone of concern data, wherein the zone of concern data corresponds to a zone of concern; and a service provider configured to receive the signal, retrieve the one or more zone of concern data from the computer network based upon the signal and transmit the one or more zone of concern data to the vessel. The zone of concern data is maritime data that is conducive to the safe, secure and economical operation of the vessel. The zone of concern is a three-dimensionally distance-bounded area surrounding the vessel or a time-bounded area surrounding the vessel.
