“Our archive represents the most complete record of Satellite AIS vessel movements on a global scale. It is a true testament to our long-standing, and world-leading, operational capability in the Satellite-AIS area.” commented Peter Mabson, President of exactEarth. “Furthermore, this unique archive is now growing at an unprecedented rate which reinforces our belief that it will be considered the definitive record of maritime vessel movements on a global scale. With continual improvements being made in our unique ground-based processing capabilities, as well as recent expansions in our superior satellite constellation, we have seen a 50% increase in our operational capability in just the last 6 months. This has resulted in exactEarth now receiving and processing a staggering 1 million AIS messages a day from space for our ever expanding user community. We are excited to announce the availability of exactAIS Archive as it further expands our premier service capability.”
exactAIS Archive can be accessed using a wide selection of search criteria, including:
- Date and time range
