Display AIS Data on the Map #698

Vitaly,

Thank you for developing such a good web interface for Traccar.

I have a question/feature request.... Is it possible to display AIS ship NMEA position data on the map? I don't want to store this position data in the database as I will not know the Device id (MMSI) in advance. There is an application called AIS Dispatcher, http://www.aishub.net/aisdispatcher-description.php that can provide UDP streams, that could be used as the input to traccar-web.

Thanks,

Ian

Well, it looks too specific to be included in public versions. There are many other tasks with higher priority, so I don't think it is going to be implemented. Also it is quite complicated since if you want to use UDP it will require some UDP server listening for the requests, which most probably will require changes in traccar "backend" project for data recording and in the web UI project for this data to display.
