Today, developments in communication systems offer great opportunities for effective control and inspection of coasts. Especially developments in wireless communication systems offer many new opportunities for countries to effectively manage their coasts. While these developments in communication systems lead to problems such as marine pollution in the surrounding seas of countries, safety of life and property at sea, irregular migration, effective use of maritime transportation, maximum utilization of seafood, they also offer very important opportunities in many areas. As it is known, uncontrolled migration, which has become a big problem even for landlocked countries in recent years, is largely carried out by sea and therefore the security of coasts has become an international issue. In addition, in our world where natural resources are decreasing, keeping the seas clean and making maximum use of the opportunities offered by the seas have become one of the most important areas of interest for countries. Developments in technology in recent years offer very important opportunities to countries and their administrations in all these issues. Today, new opportunities provided in wireless communication and the use of data communication in these systems also make it possible to automatically collect and evaluate many data. In this regard, the shifting of channels used in marine VHF systems to data communication in recent years has become an important communication infrastructure for the collection of data related to the seas. In addition, with the arrangements made in the GMDSS legislation, Iridium satellite systems have become one of the mandatory systems that can be used as an alternative on ships. Again, in recent years, although not mandatory, the intensive use of satellite systems such as Starlink on ships has facilitated the instant data reception from ships and seas. In this way, it has become possible for the relevant authorities of the countries to obtain detailed information about the surrounding seas and to manage their coasts more easily.
