New HARBOR pipeline predicts vessel movement from single SAR images

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

Researchers have developed HARBOR, a new pipeline designed to predict vessel movement from single synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images, even when traditional tracking data like AIS is unavailable. The system preprocesses SAR images to detect and classify vessels, then uses offline-calibrated motion parameters to generate probabilistic future position heatmaps. A case study using COSMO-SkyMed imagery in Brazil demonstrated HARBOR's ability to extract motion tendencies in data-denied maritime environments. AI
