Historical AIS Data
The most extensive archive of Satellite and Terrestrial AIS data encompassing ship information related to voyage and static data that dates back to 2009.
Historical AIS data is a valuable data source used for vessel traffic analyses, port calls information and accident investigations. It could help to reduce risk and plan the safest routes based on vessel traffic patterns and seasonal changes.
The ship position data provides insights on the performing analysis of potential trends in the shipping market or vessel behaviour patterns for the prosecution of illegal activities.
Position Data
We deliver historical AIS position data captured by thousands of land-based AIS stations and satellites going back to 2009.
The data provides insight into the voyages and behavior of every ship at sea. You do not need to have the technical knowledge to work with specialised software, because the data is delivered in XLS or CSV format, which can be easily processed by any program for data editing such as Microsoft Excel. For your convenience, we also provide access to specially developed tools for visualisation of the vessel movements on a sea chart or a satellite map.
The AIS data could be delivered for any vessel, port, or custom area of interest.

Port Calls Data & Events Report
Information about all visited ports and vessels' behaviour during their voyage.
Correlating historical position data transmitted by vessels' AIS transponders with a predefined database of geo-polygons, our Port Calls & Event Tracking reports deliver insights on the arrival and departure time of vessels, the time ships spent in port or in the anchorage area, and much more.
The Port Calls data & Event Tracking reports could be delivered for any vessel, port, or custom area of interest, both in XLS, CSV, or another appropriate format.
