The Union Defence Minister launched the Information Fusion Centre – Indian Ocean Region (IFC-IOR) at Information Management and Analysis Centre (IMAC) Gurugram, Haryana.
Through this, information on “white shipping” will be exchanged with countries in the region to improve maritime domain awareness in the Indian Ocean.
IMAC is the single point centre linking all the coastal radar chains to generate a seamless real-time picture of the nearly 7,500 km coastline.
