About us - Kongsberg Norcontrol ITMaritime surveillance systems play a vital role in the protection of ports, waterways, offshore installations, and natural resources. Vessel Traffic Service Systems (VTS), also known as Vessel Traffic Management and Information Systems (VTMIS), and Automatic Identification System (AIS) networks are instrumental surveillance tools that provide real-time data of vessel movements.
Kongsberg Norcontrol IT is the world's leading VTS, VTMIS, and AIS network solutions provider, with over 170 VTS systems and AIS networks worldwide. Since the delivery of our first VTS system in 1978, Norcontrol VTS systems and AIS networks have been installed in the world's largest and busiest ports, waterways, offshore oil and gas fields, and coastal areas.
In November 2005, Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace AS (KDA), acquired 100% ownership of Norcontrol IT. While we remain a separate, private company, Kongsberg Norcontrol IT is now integrated into a newly established division within KDA: Land Systems & Surveillance, which provides maritime and land based surveillance systems for civilian, military and other public installations at national and international levels.
