Abstract

Efficiently handling Automatic Identification System (AIS) data is vital for enhancing maritime safety and navigation, yet is hindered by the system’s high volume and error-prone datasets. This paper introduces the Automatic Identification System Database (AISdb), a novel tool designed to address the challenges of processing and analyzing AIS data. AISdb is a comprehensive, open-source platform that enables the integration of AIS data with environmental datasets, thus enriching analyses of vessel movements and their environmental impacts. By facilitating AIS data collection, cleaning, and spatio-temporal querying, AISdb significantly advances AIS data research. Utilizing AIS data from various sources, AISdb demonstrates improved handling and analysis of vessel information, contributing to enhancing maritime safety, security, and environmental sustainability efforts.

海事跟踪数据分析并与 AISdb 集成

有效处理自动识别系统（AIS）数据对提高海上安全和航行至关重要，但该系统的数据集数量大且容易出错，这阻碍了数据的处理。本文介绍了自动识别系统数据库 (AISdb)，这是一个新颖的工具，旨在应对处理和分析 AIS 数据的挑战。AISdb 是一个全面的开源平台，可将 AIS 数据与环境数据集整合在一起，从而丰富对船舶移动及其环境影响的分析。通过促进 AIS 数据的收集、清理和时空查询，AISdb 极大地推动了 AIS 数据研究。AISdb 利用各种来源的 AIS 数据，改进了对船只信息的处理和分析，有助于加强海事安全、安保和环境可持续发展工作。

期刊介绍： SoftwareX aims to acknowledge the impact of software on today''s research practice, and on new scientific discoveries in almost all research domains. SoftwareX also aims to stress the importance of the software developers who are, in part, responsible for this impact. To this end, SoftwareX aims to support publication of research software in such a way that: The software is given a stamp of scientific relevance, and provided with a peer-reviewed recognition of scientific impact; The software developers are given the credits they deserve; The software is citable, allowing traditional metrics of scientific excellence to apply; The academic career paths of software developers are supported rather than hindered; The software is publicly available for inspection, validation, and re-use. Above all, SoftwareX aims to inform researchers about software applications, tools and libraries with a (proven) potential to impact the process of scientific discovery in various domains. The journal is multidisciplinary and accepts submissions from within and across subject domains such as those represented within the broad thematic areas below: Mathematical and Physical Sciences; Environmental Sciences; Medical and Biological Sciences; Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences. Originating from these broad thematic areas, the journal also welcomes submissions of software that works in cross cutting thematic areas, such as citizen science, cybersecurity, digital economy, energy, global resource stewardship, health and wellbeing, etcetera. SoftwareX specifically aims to accept submissions representing domain-independent software that may impact more than one research domain.
