United States Coast Guard search and rescue authorities from the Atlantic Area Command Center provided Amver surface picture information to rescue authorities in France. While it is difficult to tell if France diverted any commercial ships, it should be reassuring knowing Amver ships stand ready to assist in any maritime emergency.
Search and rescue authorities can learn how to request Amver data from the United States Coast Guard here.
Are you on an Amver ship? Have you diverted for an aircraft emergency?
