The International Marine Organization defines maritime domain awareness (MDA) as an effective understanding of everything related to the maritime domain that may influence security, safety, the economy, or the environment. MDA is claimed to act as a 'critical facilitator' for other maritime security challenges, such as anti-piracy patrols, in the sense that to conduct successful patrols, you must first be able to perform effective MDA. All locations and items of, on, under, relating to, next to, or bordering on a sea, ocean, or another navigable waterway, including all maritime-related activities, infrastructure, people, cargo, vessels, and other conveyances, are included in the maritime domain.
