Marine

Marine vessels have a need for satellite-based communications due to the
absence of reliable terrestrial-based coverage more than a few miles
offshore. ORBCOMM's M2M data communications system offers features and
functions to luxury recreational marine vessels and commercial fishing
vessels, such as onboard diagnostics and other marine telematics, alarms,
requests for assistance, security, location reporting and tracking, e-mail
and two-way messaging, catch data and weather reports.  In addition, owners
and operators of commercial fishing and other marine vessels are
increasingly subject to regulations governing, among other things,
commercial fishing seasons and geographic limitations, vessel tracking,
safety systems, and resource management and protection using the ORBCOMM
global M2M communications systems.
