Norway Arctic maritime surveillance and research

Overview

Norway is advancing its maritime capabilities and surveillance infrastructure in response to changing environmental and strategic conditions in the Arctic.

Initial developments included the establishment of a coastal research centre and advancements in autonomous underwater robotics. Following these technological steps, Norway has focused on strengthening maritime security as receding sea ice increases economic activity and opens new shipping routes in the region.

To monitor its jurisdictional waters, including Svalbard and Jan Mayen, the Norwegian Coast Guard (Kystvakten) utilizes a combination of patrols, radar, satellite data, and Automatic Identification Systems (AIS). The nation continues to manage fisheries, environmental protection, and search and rescue operations through these enhanced surveillance methods.
