As maritime traffic increased in the mid-20th century, so did the need to introduce a maritime surveillance system. With the advent of navigation radar, technical conditions for the application of surveillance systems were acquired and improved and improved in line with the appearance of sophisticated navigation equipment on board ships. A functional and operational maritime surveillance system enables monitoring of maritime traffic and interaction with participants in the navigation business, which increases the safety of navigation. In order to achieve quality control and management, it is necessary to implement modern technologies that collectively determine the large initial investments and the necessity of continuous investment maintenance. These technologies consist of sensors of VTS systems consisting of marine radars, automatic identification system (AIS), video surveillance data (CCTV), meteorological and hydrographic data as well as radio wave source information (RDF). The speed and reliability of the processing of this data are key parameters for the operation of the maritime surveillance system
