Office of Global Maritime Situational Awareness
The Office of Global Maritime Situational Awareness is a United States interagency office with a global reach tasked with enhancing global maritime domain awareness.
The focus of OGMSA is interagency coordination within U.S. federal, state and local governments, increased international cooperation and improved commercial cooperation – all to facilitate seamless maritime information sharing. OGMSA identifies the data owners and the information they can contribute, demonstrates how participation will be beneficial, resolves barriers to participation, and fosters development of the architecture, protocols and policies to make maritime information available and searchable.
