Space-based data addresses port congestion,
saves fuel for maritime vessels and streamlines today’s strained
global supply chains
Today, Spire Global, Inc. (NYSE: SPIR) (“Spire” or the
“Company”), a leading global provider of space-based data,
analytics, and space services, announced the availability of
Maritime 2.0, an update to Spire’s maritime solutions that provides
marine data on vessel locations, weather conditions, and global
shipping activity so that organizations can optimize real-time
decision making.
Supported by GraphQL, the Maritime 2.0 API services update will
improve the quality of the vessel tracking Automatic Identification
System (AIS) data coverage Spire provides and support new data
delivery. Spire Maritime 2.0 is the first satellite AIS maritime
data solution to offer GraphQL, an open-source query language.
Spire’s latest Maritime 2.0 offers:
- Smarter, cleaner AIS data - New algorithms offer high
quality, accurate vessel identification with logic to clean up
duplicate data sets and create improved routing models.
- Enhanced Global Coverage - Users will see a 20% increase
in daily messages from global terrestrial data.
- Improved, Scalable Delivery - For the first time,
customers will be able to use GraphQL, deployed at other leading
enterprise technology platforms including Atlassian, GitHub, New
Relic, Intuit, and Shopify, to query Spire data, integrate easily
with outside platforms and simplify how developers can access and
iterate on data.
“Our customers have asked for more coverage, precision at scale
and even cleaner data delivery,” said John Lusk, SVP of Spire
Global. “We are committed to providing continuous innovation across
our maritime solutions. Maritime 2.0 delivers on this promise with
the data and analytics needed to address port congestion, save fuel
for maritime vessels and streamline today’s strained global supply
chains.”
"It has been excellent to have had access to the Beta release of
the Maritime 2.0 GraphQL API. As data volumes increase, customer
requirements expand and diversify, and technology evolves, it is
integral for data providers to continuously improve how they
deliver their data. It is innovations such as the Maritime 2.0
GraphQL API that embody why Spire is a leader in AIS data and
delivery,” said Ryan Lloyd, Head of Research and Development,
Geollect, a geospatial company using Spire’s AIS data to map vessel
locations and make global insights.
