Dear European Border and Coast Guard Agency,

Under the right of access to documents in the EU treaties, as developed in Regulation 1049/2001, I am requesting documents which contain the following information:

Any documents concerning the detection of AIS spoofing or GNSS interference in the context of maritime border surveillance;

Any guidance, procedures, or training materials for FRONTEX analysts on identifying spoofed or manipulated AIS vessel tracks;

Any use of EMSA's repository of AIS spoofing cases or SafeSeaNet data in FRONTEX operations;

Any internal assessments of how GNSS interference affects the integrity of the EU maritime situational picture used for border security.

I request partial access where full disclosure is not possible.

Yours faithfully,

Daniel Lasenberg
