    • Nationwide Automatic Identification System 2010

    Metadata Updated: October 31, 2024

    The 2010 United States Automatic Identification System Database contains vessel traffic data for planning purposes within the U.S. coastal waters. The database is composed of 204 self-contained File Geodatabases (FGDB). Each FGDB represents one month of data for a single UTM zone. The UTM zones represented cover the entire United States and include 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, and 19. Each FGDB consists of one feature class, four tables, and two relationship classes. The Broadcast point feature class contains the position reports, which have been pre-filtered to a one-minute time step. The Voyage table contains elements of the static data reports that are updated for each ship voyage. The Vessel table contains elements of the static data reports that are specific to a particular vessel. The BaseStations table lists the base stations collecting data for a particular month/UTM zone. The AttributeUnits table contains a list of units for each of the attribute fields in the Broadcast, Voyage, and Vessel tables. The BroadcastHasVessel relationship class relates the broadcast points to the vessel table records. The BroadcastHasVoyage relationship class relates the broadcast points to the voyage table records.
