The Marine Ship Tracking API is a service that allows developers to access real-time ship information and track the routes of ships using their unique IMO numbers. It provides comprehensive data about ship positions, speeds, headings, destinations, and more.
The API provides a wealth of vessel data such as course, destination, estimated time of arrival (ETA) and historical information about their routes. This information makes it possible to track vessels in real time and analyze their past movements.
The Marine Ship Tracking API strives to provide accurate and up-to-date ship tracking data. However, please note that ship positions and other data are subject to various factors such as ship reporting frequency, reception quality, and data source reliability.
The API itself does not provide native alert or notification functionality. However, developers can leverage the data retrieved from the API to implement custom alert systems within their applications, triggering notifications based on specific ship criteria or events.
Integration is straightforward. The API offers well-documented endpoints and provides developers with clear instructions on how to make requests and retrieve ship information. Detailed documentation and code examples facilitate easy integration.
The "GET Vessel Information" endpoint returns detailed data about a vessel, including its IMO number, name, ship type, flag, gross tonnage, summer deadweight, dimensions (length and beam), and year of built. This information helps users identify and understand the specifications of a specific ship.
The response from the "GET Current Position" endpoint is structured in a JSON format, containing fields such as area, current port, latitude, longitude, navigational status, speed, course, and AIS source. Each field provides specific information about the vessel's current status and location.
The "GET Get Route" endpoint requires the vessel's IMO number to retrieve its current route. Users can customize their requests by specifying additional parameters like the desired data fields, such as departure port, arrival port, navigation status, and latest port calls.
The "GET Position by MMSI" endpoint response includes key fields such as destination, reported ETA, speed, heading, draught, position received time, latitude/longitude, and navigational status. These fields provide a comprehensive view of the vessel's current operational status.
The Marine Ship Tracking API utilizes AIS (Automatic Identification System) data from both terrestrial and satellite sources. This dual-source approach enhances data accuracy and provides global coverage for real-time vessel tracking.
Users can leverage the returned data to monitor vessel movements, optimize logistics, and enhance operational planning. For example, by analyzing ETA and current position, users can make informed decisions regarding port operations and resource allocation.
The "GET Latest Ports by MMSI Code" endpoint provides information such as position received time, area, current port, coordinates, navigational status, and details of last port calls, including arrival, departure, and time spent in each port.
Typical use cases include maritime logistics planning, real-time vessel tracking for safety and compliance, historical analysis of shipping routes, and operational efficiency improvements at ports by monitoring vessel arrivals and departures.
To obtain your API key, first sign in to your account and navigate to the API you want to use. From the API's Pricing section, choose a plan and complete the subscription process. Once subscribed, return to the API page and you will see your API Access Key displayed at the top of the documentation page. You can use this key to authenticate your requests.
You can’t switch APIs during the free trial. If you subscribe to a different API, your trial will end and the new subscription will start as a paid plan.
The free trial lasts for 7 days and allows you to make up to 50 API requests.
No, the free trial is available only once, so we recommend using it on the API that interests you the most. Most of our APIs offer a free trial, but some may not include this option.
Yes. If the API offers a free trial, you will see a "Free 7-Day Trial" option in its Pricing section. The trial lasts for 7 days and allows up to 50 API requests, enabling you to evaluate the API before subscribing to a paid plan.
Zyla API Hub is like a big store for APIs, where you can find thousands of them all in one place. We also offer dedicated support and real-time monitoring of all APIs. Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription. But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.
You can monitor your API usage through the response headers included with every request:
x-zyla-api-calls-monthly-used: Shows the total number of API requests you have used during the current billing period.
x-zyla-api-calls-monthly-remaining: Shows the number of API requests you have remaining for the current billing period.
Yes, you can cancel your subscription at any time. Simply go to the Pricing section of the API you're subscribed to and click the "Unsubscribe" button.
Please note that upgrades, downgrades, and cancellations take effect immediately. Once your subscription is canceled, access to the service will end immediately, regardless of any remaining API calls in your quota.
