Encrypt possibilities? #142

Is it possible for Maiana to operate under encrypted information?

What I want is for my boat, equipped with AIS, to be able to display on cartography TIMEZERO or another (NMEA sequences) maritime and aerial drones, auxiliary boats, buoys, etc. without anyone else seeing them. Only me. Could we do this?

There is a solution on the market such as Raymarine's AIS5000 but the cost is... absurd.

Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure I understood your question. Can you elaborate?

They are probably looking for support of EAIS or similar:

Though typically, decryption is done by the ECS/charting software, not the AIS receiver, and I'm not sure if TIMEZERO supports that. Over the air it's just binary broadcast messages:

thats right...

TIMEZERO runs on Windows, the frame could be captured and decoded beforehand to pass the sentence in clear to TIMEZERO.

Regarding the AIS message you have inserted, I understand that it is encrypted? Sorry for my lack of knowledge,

I don't have a great knowledge of AIS, but I am interested in the subject, I think it could be a nice challenge. I'm going to read more about your project and buy a development KIT to try it.
