Thailand Marine Department Solar AIS AtoN Project 2025

Project Overview Dexonmarine successfully delivered and installed 10 sets of solar-powered integrated AIS marine lanterns for the Thai Marine Department, providing reliable coastal navigation safety. Each unit was inspected and approved by the authorities, confirming full compliance with operational standards and seamless integration with existing maritime control systems.
Location: Bangkok, Thailand
Completion: March 2025

Challenge & Solution The project required interoperability with existing U.S.-branded AIS systems. Dexonmarine’s engineering team provided customized communication protocol optimization, ensuring full compatibility with AIS Message 6 data formats. When initial message structure mismatches occurred, the team quickly delivered remote firmware updates and technical guidance, avoiding any delays in commissioning.
