In the MoB (Man Overboard) section of the ECDIS program, we will explore the functionality designed for emergency situations where a person has fallen overboard. This tool is crucial for onboard safety and swift response during emergencies.
The MoB function enables you to quickly record the exact location of the incident on the chart and send an AIS (Automatic Identification System) alert to nearby vessels. This alert informs other ships about the need to assist in the rescue operation or to maintain a safe distance.

AIS alerts warn nearby vessels to request assistance for the rescue operation or to stay clear, if the situation requires it.
Activating the MoB function automatically sends an alert through the AIS (Automatic Identification System) to nearby vessels. This alert informs other ships about the incident, indicating the need to request assistance in the rescue operation or maintain a safe distance from the area, as the situation requires.
