Editing Maritime identification digits

{{Short description|3-digit code to identify home country/base area}}
'''Maritime identification digits''' are used by [[radio]] communication facilities to identify their home country or base area in [[digital selective calling]] (DSC), [[Automatic Transmitter Identification System (marine)|Automatic Transmitter Identification System]] (ATIS), and [[Automatic identification system]] (AIS) messages as part of their [[Maritime Mobile Service Identity|Maritime Mobile Service Identities]] (MMSI). The [[International Telecommunication Union]] facilitates the assignment of MIDs to countries.<ref name="ITU">{{cite web|url=https://www.itu.int/en/ITU-R/terrestrial/fmd/Pages/mid.aspx|title=Table of Maritime Identification Digits|publisher=ITU|accessdate=2020-02-04}}</ref> Note that not all countries have MIDs; those without are typically [[Landlocked country|landlocked]], with no access to international waters.  Sorting MID assignments in numerical order reveals a regional structure, with the first digit:
* 2 assigned to Europe,
* 3 to North America and the Caribbean,
* 4 to Asia (except the southeast),
* 5 to the Pacific and Eastern Indian Oceans and Southeast Asia,
* 6 to Africa, the Atlantic Ocean and Western Indian Ocean, and
* 7 to South America.
