Hi Guys, I've been on this problem for a while and I can't think of a way to make this work. I am no programmer, I have learned what I know on this forum (Thank you all for that). I am recieving NMEA AIS data. I calculate the distance and the bearing from me to the vessel. Now besides displaying…

It is a very clean and a smaller solution to what I had first. It took me some time to figure out I needed a function node infront of the append, to convert my incoming messages. But I got it all working. [{"id":"c7bd3578c3bc7062","type":"link in","z":"f3da98203cbc6de3","name":"To Temp Storage","l…

Influx certainly not the tool to use for this I don't think. The first thing to understand is how many vessels you need to hold data for? Then, how long do you keep the data - or rather, how do you know when you no longer need the data? If the number of vessels is a manageable number (no more tha…

I guess it depends if you need just the most recent position for each vessel or historical data. Either way, my instinct would be to use a "proper" SQL database such as Mariadb. Create a VESSEL record whenever a new vessel enters your area of interest, and a VESSEL_LOCATION record whenever you rece…

Glad it helped. If the data grows to big you could do similar in a db, just update existing entries rather than insert if the mmsi already exists

I got a question. The AIS messages have "Message Types" 1 - 27. If an array comes in with mmsi, lon, lat, sog and later another comes in with the mmsi, lon, lat, cog, name Is everything overwritten (example sog is removed), or only the ones that change or added?

I think every thing is overwritten, The original AIS post all the info was delivered in one go. You could merge the incoming object with the stored object and then append it, to preserve all the data.
