# MarineRadar — Full Reference for AI Models > Real-time vessel tracking, port data, and maritime intelligence platform built by Lascade. Based in Dubai, UAE. MarineRadar provides live AIS-based ship positions for 112,000+ vessels, a directory of 20,559 ports with UN/LOCODE identifiers, and 14,900+ lighthouses with flash characteristics and operational status. The platform is available as a free app on iOS and Android and as a full-featured web application at marineradar.com. No account is required for core functionality. --- ## Platform Overview MarineRadar serves the global maritime community — shipping professionals, port operators, logistics coordinators, marine researchers, journalists, and maritime enthusiasts. The platform aggregates data from the Automatic Identification System (AIS), the transponder-based tracking system mandated by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) for all international voyaging ships over 300 gross tonnage and all passenger vessels regardless of size. AIS transmissions include vessel identity (MMSI, IMO number, call sign, vessel name), dynamic data (position, course over ground, speed over ground, heading, rate of turn, navigation status), and voyage data (destination, estimated time of arrival, draught). MarineRadar processes both terrestrial AIS (shore-based receivers) and satellite AIS (space-based receivers) to provide coverage across coastal waters and open ocean. The port directory follows the UN/LOCODE standard (United Nations Code for Trade and Transport Locations), maintained by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE). Each port record includes the 5-character UN/LOCODE, geographic coordinates, maximum permissible draft, maximum vessel size restrictions (length and beam), harbor type classification, and local time zone offset. Lighthouse data is sourced from official Lists of Lights published by national hydrographic offices, primarily the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office (UKHO) Admiralty List of Lights and the U.S. National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) List of Lights. Each lighthouse record includes flash characteristics using IALA (International Association of Marine Aids to Navigation and Lighthouse Authorities) notation, light color, flash interval, number of flashes per cycle, focal height above mean sea level, nominal light range in nautical miles, geographic coordinates, and operational status. --- ## Core Features ### Live Vessel Tracking Real-time AIS ship positions for 112,000+ vessels worldwide. The interactive map shows vessel names, MMSI numbers, course, speed, heading, destination, and ETA — updated continuously via AIS. Color-coded vessel icons distinguish ship types at a glance. Users can zoom from global overview down to individual berths in a port. Each vessel is clickable to access its full detail page with current weather conditions at the ship's position and voyage progress between departure and destination ports. ### Port Directory A searchable database of 20,559 ports across 120+ countries. Each port page includes: - UN/LOCODE identifier (e.g., USLAX for Los Angeles, SGSIN for Singapore) - Geographic coordinates with interactive map - Maximum permissible draft in meters - Maximum vessel size (length and beam) restrictions - Harbor type (coastal natural, coastal breakwater, river basin, etc.) - Local time zone offset from UTC - Nearby vessel traffic (live AIS data within the port area) - Nearby lighthouses and navigation aids within 50 nautical miles - Geographic context: sea region, climate zone, and proximity to major shipping lanes ### Lighthouse Directory Comprehensive data on 14,900+ lighthouses and navigation lights worldwide. Each lighthouse page includes: - Flash characteristics in IALA notation (e.g., "Fl W 5s" = single white flash every 5 seconds) - Light color (white, red, green, or combination) - Flash interval in seconds and number of flashes per cycle - Focal height above mean sea level in meters - Nominal light range in nautical miles - Geographic coordinates with interactive map - Operational status (operational, inactive, historical) - Nearby ports within 50 nautical miles ### Vessel Types Directory Ships are classified by AIS type codes into eight categories, each with a dedicated directory page: - **Cargo** (AIS type 70-79): Container ships, bulk carriers, general cargo, reefer, ro-ro, heavy-lift - **Tanker** (AIS type 80-89): Crude oil (VLCC, Suezmax, Aframax), product, chemical, LNG/LPG carriers - **Passenger** (AIS type 60-69): Cruise ships, ferries, ro-pax, expedition ships - **Fishing** (AIS type 30): Trawlers, seiners, longliners, gillnetters, factory ships - **Tug / Pilot Vessel** (AIS type 31-32, 50-52): Harbor tugs, ocean tugs, pilot boats, SAR craft, AHTS - **High-Speed Craft** (AIS type 40-49): Hydrofoils, hovercraft, catamarans, WIG craft - **Yacht** (AIS type 36-37): Sailing yachts, motor yachts, superyachts - **Military / Special** (AIS type 33-35, 55-59): Warships, coast guard, research, cable layers, dredgers, icebreakers ### Flag States Directory Vessels organized by country of registration (flag state). Major open registries tracked include Panama, Liberia, Marshall Islands, Hong Kong, Singapore, Bahamas, and Malta. Each flag state page shows the number of registered vessels and provides a searchable list filtered by that country. ### Maritime Resource Hub Articles, guides, and analysis covering vessel tracking, AIS data interpretation, port operations, navigation aids, maritime safety, and industry trends.

This broad category encompasses container ships that carry standardized TEU (twenty-foot equivalent unit) containers on fixed liner routes between major ports, bulk carriers transporting unpackaged commodities such as grain, coal, iron ore, and bauxite in large holds, general cargo ships handling breakbulk and project freight, reefer vessels equipped with refrigerated holds for perishable goods like fruit, meat, and pharmaceuticals, ro-ro (roll-on/roll-off) ships designed for wheeled cargo including cars, trucks, and trailers, and heavy-lift ships capable of transporting oversized industrial equipment such as power plant components and offshore platform modules. Container ships alone are responsible for moving over 80% of the world's non-bulk traded goods by volume. Fleet sizes range from small coastal freighters of a few thousand deadweight tonnes to Ultra Large Container Vessels (ULCVs) exceeding 24,000 TEU capacity and 400 meters in length. The largest container ships currently in service can carry the equivalent of over 200,000 tonnes of cargo. ### Tanker Vessels Tankers (AIS type 80-89) are purpose-built ships designed to transport liquid cargo in bulk within specialized tank compartments. The category includes crude oil tankers classified by size — Very Large Crude Carriers (VLCCs, 200,000-320,000 DWT), Suezmax tankers (120,000-200,000 DWT, the maximum size that can transit the Suez Canal fully laden), Aframax tankers (80,000-120,000 DWT), and Panamax tankers — as well as product tankers carrying refined petroleum fuels like gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel, chemical tankers with epoxy-coated or stainless steel cargo tanks rated for hazardous liquids, and LNG carriers using cryogenic membrane or Moss-type spherical containment systems to transport liquefied natural gas at -162°C. All modern tankers are double-hulled as mandated by MARPOL (International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships) Annex I regulations, a requirement phased in globally after major oil spill incidents to provide an additional barrier against hull breaches. Tanker operations are governed by the International Safety Management (ISM) Code and subject to port state vetting inspections through industry programs like SIRE (Ship Inspection Report Programme) and CDI (Chemical Distribution Institute). ### Passenger Vessels Passenger vessels (AIS type 60-69) carry people as their primary function and are subject to the most stringent maritime safety regulations in existence. This category includes ocean-going cruise ships accommodating thousands of passengers across multiple decks with extensive hospitality amenities, car ferries and fast ferries providing scheduled service on coastal and inter-island routes, ro-pax vessels that combine passenger capacity with roll-on/roll-off vehicle decks for cars and commercial freight, and expedition ships built for polar and remote-area cruising with ice-strengthened hulls. Passenger ships must comply fully with SOLAS (International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea) Chapter II-2 fire protection requirements, carry life-saving equipment for every person on board including lifeboats and life rafts, maintain comprehensive damage stability standards ensuring the ship can survive flooding of multiple compartments, and conduct regular emergency drills for both crew and passengers. The Polar Code imposes additional requirements for ships operating in Arctic and Antarctic waters, including ice navigation training for officers. The Large Passenger Ship Safety guidelines address evacuation challenges specific to vessels carrying more than 4,000 persons. ### Fishing Vessels Fishing vessels (AIS type 30) are boats and ships used to catch fish, shellfish, and other marine organisms for commercial, artisanal, or industrial purposes. They range from small inshore trawlers operating in coastal waters to large factory trawlers and processing ships that catch, process, freeze, and package fish entirely at sea during voyages lasting weeks or months. Common vessel types include stern trawlers that drag weighted nets along the seabed or through the water column, purse seiners that encircle schools of pelagic fish (tuna, sardine, anchovy) with a large net drawn closed at the bottom, longliners that deploy mainlines with thousands of baited hooks targeting tuna, swordfish, and halibut, gillnetters using vertical curtain-like nets that entangle fish by their gills, and dredgers that harvest shellfish (scallops, clams, oysters) from the ocean floor. AIS tracking of fishing vessels plays a critical role in maritime governance. It enables flag states and regional fisheries management organizations (RFMOs) to monitor fleet activity in real time, enforce exclusive economic zone (EEZ) boundaries, detect "dark fishing" (vessels that deliberately disable their transponders to avoid detection), and combat illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing — a global problem estimated to account for up to 26 million tonnes of catch annually, valued at $10-23 billion. ### Tug and Pilot Vessels Tugs and pilot vessels (AIS type 31-32, 50-52) provide essential harbor, waterway, and offshore services that enable the safe movement of larger commercial ships. Harbor tugboats assist vessels with berthing (docking), unberthing (undocking), and maneuvering in confined port waters using tow lines, push knees, or Voith Schneider cycloidal propulsion systems that offer exceptional omnidirectional maneuverability. A typical harbor tug develops 50-80 tonnes of bollard pull. Ocean-going tugs tow barges, disabled ships, and offshore structures (oil platforms, floating production units) across open water over long distances. Escort tugs accompany tankers through environmentally sensitive waterways like Prince William Sound and the English Channel, positioned to arrest the motion of a disabled tanker using indirect towing methods that can generate forces far exceeding the tug's static bollard pull. Pilot boats are fast, highly seaworthy craft that carry licensed maritime pilots out to incoming vessels in all weather conditions. The pilot boards via a pilot ladder (or helicopter for very large ships) to guide the ship through port approaches, narrow channels, and congested waterways where local knowledge of currents, tidal patterns, shoals, and traffic separation schemes is critical for safe navigation. This AIS category also encompasses search-and-rescue (SAR) vessels, anchor-handling tug supply (AHTS) vessels serving offshore oil and gas platforms, and salvage tugs equipped for emergency towage and wreck removal. ### High-Speed Craft High-speed craft (AIS type 40-49) are vessels engineered to travel at speeds significantly above those of conventional displacement-hull ships, typically exceeding 30 knots (55 km/h). The category includes hydrofoils that lift above the water surface on underwater wings to eliminate hull drag, hovercraft (air-cushion vehicles) that ride on a pressurized air bubble enabling operation over water, ice, sand, and swamp, high-speed catamarans and trimarans using slender twin or triple hulls to reduce wave-making resistance, and wing-in-ground (WIG) effect craft that fly just above the water surface using aerodynamic ground effect for fuel-efficient high-speed transit. These vessels are regulated under the IMO's International Code of Safety for High-Speed Craft (HSC Code), which imposes enhanced requirements for structural strength, stability in both intact and damaged conditions, fire safety systems, navigation and communication equipment, and crew training and certification — all beyond what standard SOLAS provisions require for conventional ships. High-speed craft are commonly deployed on inter-island passenger routes (particularly in Scandinavia, Japan, and Southeast Asia), military patrol and interception missions, offshore wind farm and oil platform crew transfer operations, and emergency medical evacuation services where rapid transit times are operationally critical. ### Yachts Yachts (AIS type 36-37) are recreational and luxury watercraft that range from small sailing yachts and coastal cruisers to motor superyachts exceeding 100 meters in length. Under SOLAS Chapter V, all vessels over 300 GT on international voyages — and in practice most yachts over 24 meters — are required to carry AIS transponders, making them visible in vessel tracking systems alongside commercial traffic. Superyachts represent some of the most technically sophisticated private vessels afloat, often featuring advanced stabilization systems (active fins, gyroscopic), dynamic positioning for station-keeping without anchoring, helicopter landing pads, submarine garages, and extensive entertainment facilities. Construction involves specialized naval architecture for both performance and comfort at sea. Many large yachts are commercially registered and available for charter through brokerages, in which case they must comply with the Large Yacht Code (LY3, administered by the Red Ensign Group) or the Passenger Yacht Code (PYC) covering construction standards, fire protection, safety equipment, manning levels, and crew certification requirements. The superyacht sector concentrates seasonally in Mediterranean waters (May-October) and Caribbean waters (November-April), with major refit and new-build yards in the Netherlands, Germany, Italy, and Turkey. ### Military and Special Vessels Military and special-purpose vessels (AIS type 33-35, 55-59) encompass a diverse range of government and specialized commercial ships operating under various national authorities. Military vessels include naval warships (frigates, destroyers, corvettes, aircraft carriers, amphibious assault ships, submarines), coast guard cutters, and patrol boats tasked with maritime security, territorial defense, exclusive economic zone enforcement, counter-piracy, counter-narcotics, and maritime law enforcement operations. Special-purpose vessels include: oceanographic and hydrographic research ships conducting seabed mapping, water column profiling, and scientific surveys; cable-laying ships installing and repairing subsea telecommunications fiber-optic cables and offshore wind farm power cables; trailing suction hopper dredgers (TSHDs) maintaining navigable channel depths in ports and waterways; diving support vessels (DSVs) equipped with saturation diving systems for deep-sea construction, inspection, and repair at depths up to 300+ meters; icebreakers clearing shipping lanes in Arctic and Antarctic waters to enable year-round navigation; and hospital ships providing medical and surgical facilities during humanitarian operations and disaster response. Many military vessels transmit limited or encrypted AIS data, use military AIS (WAIS) on dedicated frequencies separate from commercial channels, or disable their transponders entirely during sensitive operations for security reasons — a practice known as "going dark" that creates characteristic gaps in tracking data. --- ## Data Field Glossary ### Vessel Fields - **MMSI** (Maritime Mobile Service Identity): 9-digit ITU-assigned identifier for the vessel's AIS transponder.
