Border guards have to be equipped with technology enabling a communication, an acquisition, an exchange, and a visualization of data in different operational situations. This also applies to the staff, which is located on mobile units such as ground vehicles, aircrafts and vessels. Within the project realized for the Polish Border Guard and financed by The National Centre for Research and Development, a system was designed and implemented to fulfill this functionality for mobile units. This paper discuss the implemented system and presents its features and capabilities. The part of the system placed on the mobile unit consists of the universal radio controller, mobile operator consoles and a radio. The radio allows to connect to the observation point in the land and to access all the data obtained by all the mobile units and stored in the center database. At the operator console, it is possible to visualize the data about the objects located in the area of that particular mobile unit as well as from any other area by the use of center database. The data is derived from the AIS receivers, ARPA radars, GPS receivers and Web Service. The data can be both current and archival. Regardless of the visualization on digital maps, the data is available in the tabular database browser in various configurations defined by the operator. Both forms of presentation, i.e. visualization on maps and database browser, are synchronized and interconnected with the possibility of actively switching between them. This paper presents the functionality and the concept of the system, hardware and software implementation. The solution received certificates confirming the 9th technology readiness level (TRL 9). Apart from these features, the presented system allows the realization of telecommunication connections with any terminal attached to the border guard’s network or public networks like GSM network.
