National VOI Lexicon

This VOI Lexicon aims to provide rapid and readily understood categorization guidance to describe vessels that may post a national security, law enforcement, or regulatory threat to the United States. This unclassified standardized categorization aims to minimize confusion, facilitate a shared understanding of the potential threat of a VOI, and maximize intelligence and information sharing among federal partners. This VOI Lexicon intends to support military and civilian decision makers who comprise maritime domain stakeholders. It is also intended to assist in the development of the most appropriate response.
