Port calls
Two kinds of evidence, kept apart: calls Voydar detected from the ship's AIS positions, and arrivals and departures published by port authorities and customs records.
Detected from AIS AIS-detected
| Port | Arrived | Departed | Time in port |
|---|---|---|---|
| Emden DEEME | Sep 29, 2026, 08:30 UTC | Sep 29, 2026, 21:45 UTC | 13 h 15 min |

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.
| When | What we observed | Confidence |
|---|---|---|
| Sep 29, 2026, 21:13 UTC | Draught change Reported draught went from 6.8 m to 7.6 m while in port at Emden. Voydar infers the ship probably loaded cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1 | Medium (65%) |
| Sep 28, 2026, 18:58 UTC | Draught change Reported draught went from 7.5 m to 6.8 m while in port at Hamburg. Voydar infers the ship probably discharged cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1 | Medium (65%) |
| Sep 23, 2026, 21:00 UTC | Draught change Reported draught went from 7.4 m to 6.7 m after leaving Southampton. Voydar infers the ship probably discharged cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1 | Medium (55%) |
