Situation Report (SITREP) for Vessels and Aircraft (encrypted)
The Situation Report Message is used to send the equivalent information to AIS Message 1 but removes less essential data to compress message size.
Usage Notes
- This same report can be used for both vessels and aircraft.
Note: Only aircraft engaged in SAR (using SAR transponder) may transmit AIS.
- The position report shall be transmitted once every 30 seconds when the unit has registered a speed over ground (SOG) of less than 3 knots for more than 3 minutes and once every 15 seconds when SOG is 3 knots or greater. Aircraft should transmit at 10- second intervals.
Version 0:
This is an RTCM compliant update of the FID 0 Message 25 listed in the Oct 2014 EAIS IDD. It also replaces the DAC 366, FI 56 Position Report from the same document.

||
|
Time of Position - UTC Min |
