exactAIS data how and when you want it.


Features and Benefits:

  • OGC Certified delivery of Maritime Vessel Information, derived from the latest AIS messages
  • Interoperability – ability to seamlessly integrate exactAIS with existing geospatial platforms with little to no time or effort
  • Removes the complexity of processing AIS messages
  • Provides the ability to create custom data views using filters
  • Improved efficiency: instead of spending money (and time) setting up and managing AIS database environments, allow exactEarth to ‘host’ the data and serve you on-demand
  • On-demand data: get what you want, when you want it – and only pay for what you get

    This new way to view our industry-leading AIS data is the most efficient, accessible way to obtain the complete maritime picture for your area of interest. These data can be accessed when desired, and integrated effortlessly with your geospatial platforms - removing barriers to full data integration.

    To see how you may connect from your Geospatial platform see the Platform Interoperability Sheet.

    For Esri ArcMap users, we provide a custom add-in that opens up advanced filtering capabilities.
