Pack: digitraffic-ais · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/digitraffic-ais/mcp
Look up one specific ship by its MMSI number and get its registered details plus its latest AIS position. Returns name, call sign, IMO number, ship type, length and beam, draught, reported destination and ETA, then the live position: lat/lon, speed in knots, course, heading, navigational status, and when the report was received. Use for “where is MMSI 230052800”, “track this vessel”, “what ship is this MMSI”. COVERAGE IS REGIONAL: the ship must have been heard by a Fintraffic receiver in Finland or the surrounding Baltic Sea. Get an MMSI from ais_vessels_near first. Example: mmsi 230052800.
