A VERY useful beta-testing tool.  Thanks for the link.

Although I'm having problems getting it working.  I've setup my AIS Server to output UDP on port 29421:



When I click START in AIS Decoder, I get this error:



Any ideas?

Don't worry.  Fixed it.  AIS Decoder expect the sender to be a UDP Client, no a UDP Server.

Two screenshots from my GoogleMaps/Shipplotter page; inland-ais getting busier,
now abt. 40-50% of the inland ships have AIS on board.




My ais website: www.middenlimburg.net
Still a lot of ships send wrong information as wrong dimensions, no callsign, no eta and/or destination, or a fake destination etc.

Some ships don't even switch their AIS off when on the shipyard:
