Arrivals per day AIS-detected
Ships Voydar detected arriving at Emden on each of the last 30 days (UTC), counted once per ship per day. A day with no bar had no detected arrivals, which can also mean a gap in our AIS coverage.

Emden: daily port calls from satellite AIS (IMF PortWatch)
Estimates published by the International Monetary Fund's PortWatch, built from satellite and terrestrial AIS. They cover waters our own receivers do not reach yet. These are the IMF's figures, not Voydar's counts.
The IMF estimates 18 port calls in the 7 days and 79 in the 30 days to Sep 25, 2026. That is 6% less than the same 30 days a year earlier (84).

- Tanker
