Introduction

Welcome to the libais wiki! libais is a parser for Automatic Identification System (AIS) messages sent to and from ships. AIS is primarily defined by the paywalled ITU 1371-3 (or newer) document. However, Eric Raymond has put together AIVDM.html, which does an excellent job of covering the details of the NMEA payloads returned from AIS receivers.
