This might be an effective way to locate illegal imigrants at sea, but I suggest more cooporation between the countries of origin of those immigrants on the economical and social levels as well as security to levelate and narrow the differences between EU and such countries for this is the only way-in my openion- to stop this case.The increasing floods of illegal migrants will soon reach a level that will be very hard to counter fight logesticaly and financialy.Unless the the motivations for this is treated wisely.Most of immigrants in Egypt come from poorer villages from the secondary country-side areas and governates.Donations to such areas and mutual profitable projects should target such areas.This is the real long term treatment that should take place side by side with the short term treatment of security.
