LSEG Today announced the launch of its New Vessel Tracking API, designed to provide customers with comprehensive, real-time shipping and commodity flow data. The Vessel tracking solution delivers global visibility into vessel movements and operational status using Automatic Identification System (AIS) data sourced from terrestrial, satellite and roaming networks.
Recognising increased demand from customers for actionable AIS data within enterprise workflows, the API enriches raw inputs with a proprietary LSEG model that validates signals and flags anomalous positions, including interference or transmissions from decommissioned vessels.
Fabrice Maille, Head of Shipping, Weather & Agriculture at LSEG commented: “By combining our proprietary analytics with best-in-class AIS coverage from Kinéis and Wood Mackenzie Vesseltracker, we are delivering trusted vessel tracking data that supports more informed decision-making across global commodities and maritime markets.”
To ensure the highest data quality and coverage, the solution leverages collaborations with Kinéis and Wood Mackenzie Vesseltracker. Kinéis contributes high-resolution satellite-based AIS coverage through its constellation of 25 nanosatellites, extending reach into remote ocean regions, while Wood Mackenzie Vesseltrackers’s rapidly expanding network of more than 3,400 AIS receiver stations currently captures vessel activity from over 95% of commercial port visits globally.
Vessel Tracking data is available through the new API and integrated natively within LSEG Workspace and Interactive Map, enabling clients to analyse shipping activity alongside their broader market and workflows.
