Multi-source fused AIS vessel-movement data: terrestrial, satellite

SHIPFINDERManage supplier listing

Multi-source fused AIS vessel-movement data: terrestrial, satellite (150+ LEO AIS satellites) and Beidou transmissions deduplicated and corrected into a single position stream, with derived port-call and berthing events, dynamic ETAs, arrival/departure event push, ship-to-ship (STS) transfer detection, and exportable historical vessel tracks spanning roughly 15 years (back to 2003). Packaged alongside marine weather, tides, typhoon tracks and nautical chart layers. In effect a global physical-activity layer over commodity shipping — coal, iron ore, LNG and crude flows can be reconstructed origin-to-destination from movement alone.

Type
not stated
Format
Multimodal but predominantly structured streaming/JSON — REST API endpoints for positions, tracks, port calls and ETAs, plus TCP/IP push streams for real-time events; historical tracks are queryable and exportable, and a GIS/chart layer is offered for visualisation.
Volume
Billions of AIS messages per day ingested from 4,000+ coastal stations and 150+ satellites, retained over a roughly 15-year archive back to 2003. The page's headline counters are rendered client-side and did not resolve to printed numbers, so the exact daily message count must be requested; satellite-plus-terrestrial fusion at this infrastructure scale implies multi-petabyte historical storage.
Users
Tens of thousands of API keys issued (inferred from a self-serve free API key tier attached to a paid enterprise tier; no account count published)
History
15 years
Update frequency
not stated
Growth
Active — a current, actively built enterprise API platform with a live console, published docs, satellite constellation expansion and an SLA-backed product tier
Launched
~2019-2021 for the ShipFinder tracking product and API (the corporate record was first captured in late 2024, but the platform already runs an API console and satellite integration, so the record postdates launch)
