Overview[]
The Air and Marine Operations Surveillance System (AMOSS) integrates use of air, land, and sea resources in order to detect, interdict, and prevent acts of terrorism and the unlawful movement of people, illegal drugs, and other contraband toward or across the borders of the United States. The system may collect and use PII from publicly available aircraft and airport data provided by the FAA, requests from law enforcement about suspects, tips from the public, and recordings of event and operations data.
This PIA examines the privacy impact of aircraft systems operations as it relates to the Fair Information Practice Principles.
