OrbitSailor Archive | 12+ years of historic AIS data

OrbitSailor Archive

OrbitSailor Archive provides access to over 12+ years of AIS data, available through the OrbitSailor Configuration Dashboard or API. Users can filter data by region (GeoJSON file), vessel list, and time range, with additional options for downsampling by interval and distance to optimize analysis.

OrbitSailor | Destination and ETA

Destination and ETA

Accurately calculating a vessel's ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival) depends on knowing its next port of call. While this information should be available in AIS data, the destination field is often inconsistently used by the crew. To address this, OrbitSailor introduces an advanced feature that reliably determines the correct LOCODE (a unique port identifier) for the vessel's next destination, enabling precise ETA calculations.
