Good news! Amazing stuff!
However, 10 meter resolution seems to be a little coarse.
"... Over the last year, our research and conservation teams have collaborated on building a highly specialized computer vision model to pinpoint vessels in data collected by the European Space Agency’s (ESA) Sentinel-2 satellite. Freely available to governments and NGOs worldwide, Sentinel-2 data empowers the fight against illegal fishing and other maritime crimes. It offers a near real-time view of ships crossing oceans at a remarkable 10-meter resolution, striking a valuable balance between capturing a vast swathe of the ocean and revealing crucial details about vessels on its surface. Since its release, vessel detections from Sentinel-2 have become one of Skylight's most popular data sources – setting a new standard in maritime surveillance that enables swift analysis and response. ..."
