Behaviour at sea Voydar-derived

Patterns Voydar derived from this ship's AIS broadcasts. They are inferences, not reports: each one shows how it was computed and how confident we are, and none of them says why a ship behaved this way.

WhenWhat we observedConfidence
Oct 1, 2026, 00:38 UTC
Draught change

Reported draught went from 11.8 m to 13.6 m while in port at Barcelona. Voydar infers the ship probably loaded cargo.

Medium (65%)

Source: AISstream.io global terrestrial AIS. AIS data: AISstream.io. Licence: none published.

Derived from AIS positions of feeds whose terms allow display on Voydar. Coverage is terrestrial: gaps are reported only where our receivers kept hearing other ships. Detections below medium confidence are not shown.
