GSTS is a Canadian maritime AI company developing the OCIANA platform for risk management, intelligence and operational optimization across defence, security, commercial maritime and supply-chain environments.
Operating context
OCIANA combines maritime tracking, satellite imagery, environmental observations and intelligence feeds with behavioural analysis and geofenced alerts. Its role is to help operators investigate anomalous activity and coordinate responses across organizations; a predicted intent or risk flag is not proof of wrongdoing. The company, legally Global Spatial Technology Solutions, reported September 2026 DDI Marketplace qualification in Digital Enablers, Systems Integration, and Innovation and Experimentation. This opens a route to compete for requirements rather than establishing an equipment order. A useful integration discussion should specify licensed feeds, data freshness, confidence reporting, operator permissions and how UxV sensor observations enter the shared picture. NRC also documents a separate CanExport contribution for the Dartmouth business.
Canadian footprint
GSTS has a documented Canadian operating presence in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada. Its public organization and capability evidence should be read at that location and national scope only where the cited sources explicitly support it.
Dartmouth, Nova Scotia is the published city-level context for OCIANA. It does not imply a street address or exact facility location.
AI-powered maritime intelligence and risk-management platform
Read technical summary
OCIANA combines maritime tracking, satellite imagery and other data with behavioural analysis, vessel-identity investigation, risk scoring and configurable alerts in a browser-based platform. Its APIs and operator workflows support investigation, planning and tasking. A joint December 2025 account describes a 12-square-kilometre autonomous-vessel demonstration with Open Ocean Robotics, including an injected suspicious contact. September 2026 DDI Marketplace qualification opens a route to compete for future requirements in three streams; it is distinct from a purchase order.
Evidence of maturity
Commercially marketed platform with a supplier-reported joint USV demonstration and DDI competition eligibility. The demonstration used a scenario-injected high-risk vessel; detection accuracy, false positives and operational acceptance require separate evidence.
Commercial availability
Request an OCIANA demonstration or integration proposal. Specify licensed data coverage and freshness, operator permissions, deployment security, API access and how uncrewed sensor observations enter the operating picture.
Core features
AIS, satellite imagery, environmental and vessel-data integration through APIs
AIS-gap, identity-spoofing and vessel-behaviour analysis for investigation
Historical activity playback and operator-defined rules and triggers
Configurable areas of interest, alerts and operational views
USV protective-intelligence demonstration with Open Ocean Robotics
DDI supplier qualification in Digital Enablers, Systems Integration, and Innovation and Experimentation
OCIANA announced DDI Marketplace qualification in Stream 2 Digital Enablers, Stream 3 Systems Integration and Stream 5 Innovation and Experimentation, enabling bids on future requirements.
Maritime intelligence, risk analysis and common-operating-picture capabilities could contribute to wider maritime situational awareness; the connection to underwater ISR is a derived fit only.
Reviewed connections indicate possible relevance based on public evidence. They do not indicate procurement direction, eligibility, endorsement or customer interest.
Questions for a first conversation
01
Which sensor feeds and confidence measures are available in the proposed operating area, and how are tasking permissions and human review enforced?
Adds the September DDI access route and separates fused maritime intelligence from confirmed threat attribution.

It positions these as decision support for infrastructure, border and Arctic monitoring without disclosing detection probability or customer acceptance metrics.
OCIANA’s dark-vessel offering correlates AIS gaps/spoofing indicators, radar, SAR/optical observations and vessel behaviour for investigation, risk scoring, geofencing and tasking. An anomaly or predicted rendezvous is an investigative lead, not proof of malicious intent or guaranteed detection.
