Τhe International Maritime Organisation (IMO) requires all passengers' vessels, as well as, all commercial vessels over 299 Gross Tonnage (GT) that travel internationally to carry AIS transponder aboard. The Automatic Identification System (AIS) is an automated tracking system used in the maritime world for the exchange of navigational informational between AIS-equipped terminals and has been developed to avoid collisions and to assist port authorities to control marine traffic with more efficiency. The University of Piraeus has installed an antenna which receives AIS-type signals from ships that move to the wider port area of Piraeus. All moving ships are depicted on a website in real time which has been developed by Datastories, a community of students, educators and researchers. The aim is to analyze, process and make the data understandable to the public by using data storytelling tools.
