About Live Vessel AIS Tracking API
Datalastic real-time vessel tracking monitoring allows you to access all the vessels in the world on a global scale without any geographical limitation. After you choose your plan that includes a number of requests to the Datalastic database you can start using ships data. Create your own software extensions, applications, data analysis interfaces and more.
Get ship tracking data, such as ships IMO, MMSI numbers, vessel navigational status, destination, port of departure, actual time of departure, ship estimated time of arrival, current draught data, vessel position data (longitude and latitude), ship speed, course, heading, ship type and subtype.
Filters in Real-time Vessel Tracking API
Find the exact ships that fit your needs. Choose MMSI of the vessels you want to trace. Specify the type of vessels you want to track (for example, fishing vessels or cargo only), gross tonnage of the ship, country of origin, year the ship was built in, vessel name and even a fuzzy parameter. If you are unsure of the vessel name so our API will start looking for similar data of ship names.
Ships tracker AIS API has a very profound vessel database with more than 36 types of vessels and more than 300 subtypes. You can drill down to the specific fleet that you want to track


AIS Bulk Requests API Functionality
Save your time with our Live Vessel Tracking API Bulk Request if you need to get the data for multiple ships at the time. Instead of retrieving information about one vessel at a time, simply use the bulk vessel tracking functionality and add multiple vessels in the query.
With that you can place up to 100 vessels in 1 request and get the information on them at once. It is much easier and cleaner to code, and you get the response from the database much faster than one by one queries.
Each successful request and ships data result count as 1 request to the database.
Ship Tracking Data Overuse Protection
All Datalastic plans and endpoints contain database Overuse Protection for our users.
Each successful request to the database counts as your consumption from your monthly requests package. For example, if you choose your plan for Live Vessel Tracker API with 20000 maritime database requests per month and if you request information about 100 vessels once, the system will deduct 100 points from your API plan. So after that original API request you will have 19900 requests left.
Often by human mistake or some other bug in the query, you may call the MMSI number of the ship that does not exist or there might be some other issue why maritime data is missing. In that case, if there is no successful data on the ship, the API request does not count and nothing is deducted from your plan.
