API

Real-time AIS tracking data for marine and inland vessels

Overview

AIS Hub API delivers real-time and historical data for vessels equipped with AIS tracking systems, covering both marine and inland waterways. Key endpoints include vessel position (latitude/longitude, speed, course), static details (IMO number, vessel type, dimensions), and voyage info (destination, ETA). Responses are in JSON format for seamless integration. Use cases include fleet management for logistics firms, port traffic monitoring, environmental tracking of emissions, and maritime safety applications. It supports queries by vessel ID, geofence area, or vessel type, enabling developers to build custom tools for maritime operations.
