Data collection and transmission are crucial tasks in current marine surveillance systems. Each node samples in a specific area and transmits its sensing data back to the land by satellites. In this paper, we propose a methodology of a vessel-based ocean monitoring delay tolerant networking (VOM-DTN) which is a cost saving DTN utilizing the existing vessels' daily working voyages to transmit ocean monitoring data. Simulation results reveal the feasibility of VOM-DTN, and try to achieve the
