| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Inside the control room of the Information Management and Analysis Centre (IMAC) Gurgaon, a large screen maps - in real time - boats, vessels, surface ships that are operating in and around Indian waters. Relying on the inputs from various terrestrial networks (Indian Navy and Coast Guard stations), satellite communication systems, and coastal security radars, the coastal security surveillance software at IMAC can spot every surface craft, and once operational, it can also perform traffic analysis and evaluate threat perceptions. It assures the country a seamless maritime and coastal security. “This is the response of the country for events like 26/11 Mumbai terror attack,” said defence minister Manohar Parikkar. |
