Question 1

What is SENTINEL GIP?

Accepted Answer

SENTINEL GIP is a professional OSINT (Open-Source Intelligence) and GEOINT (Geospatial Intelligence) platform that unifies real-time maritime tracking (AIS), aerial flight tracking (ADS-B), OFAC sanctions screening, satellite imagery acquisition (Sentinel-2, Sentinel-1) and entity pivot graph investigations in a single web console. It is used by investigative journalists, OSINT analysts, compliance teams and government agencies worldwide.

Question 2

Who is SENTINEL GIP for?

Accepted Answer

Investigative journalists tracking shadow-fleet vessels and sanction evaders, OSINT analysts running due diligence and entity investigations, compliance teams screening counter-parties against OFAC SDN and EU/UK/UN sanctions lists, and risk-assessment professionals monitoring geopolitical and maritime threats.

Question 3

How is SENTINEL GIP different from Maltego, Shodan or Bellingcat tools?

Accepted Answer

SENTINEL GIP combines real-time AIS, ADS-B, satellite imagery, sanctions screening and AI-assisted analysis in one integrated console — eliminating the need to switch between Maltego, Shodan, MarineTraffic, ADS-B Exchange and OFAC search portals. Unlike Maltego's per-transform fees, SENTINEL GIP charges a flat monthly price starting at $29.99.

Question 4

Does SENTINEL GIP detect dark-fleet and sanction-evading vessels?

Accepted Answer

Yes. SENTINEL GIP automatically flags vessels with AIS gaps, suspicious STS (ship-to-ship) transfers outside designated anchorages, draft mismatches and ownership obfuscation. It cross-references AIS data with OFAC SDN, EU Consolidated, UK OFSI, UN, Swiss SECO, Canadian SEMA and Australian DFAT sanctions lists, refreshed daily.

Question 5

What satellite imagery sources does SENTINEL GIP use?

Accepted Answer

SENTINEL GIP offers on-demand acquisition of Sentinel-2 (10 m optical, cloud-aware) and Sentinel-1 (C-band SAR, all-weather, day/night) imagery from the Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem, with side-by-side compare for change detection on ports, airfields and infrastructure.
