Port calls
Two kinds of evidence, kept apart: calls Voydar detected from the ship's AIS positions, and arrivals and departures published by port authorities and customs records.

Behaviour at sea Voydar-derived
Patterns Voydar derived from this ship's AIS broadcasts. They are inferences, not reports: each one shows how it was computed and how confident we are, and none of them says why a ship behaved this way.
| When | What we observed | Confidence |
|---|---|---|
| Sep 30, 2026, 17:31 UTC | Draught change Reported draught went from 4.3 m to 2.6 m after leaving Vejle. Voydar infers the ship probably discharged cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1 | Medium (55%) |
| Sep 29, 2026, 20:21 UTC | Draught change Reported draught went from 2.4 m to 4.3 m after leaving Vejle. Voydar infers the ship probably loaded cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1 | Medium (55%) |
| Sep 23, 2026, 10:07 UTC | Draught change Reported draught went from 2.4 m to 4.4 m while in port at Abenra. Voydar infers the ship probably loaded cargo. Method seadar.behaviour.draught_change v1 | High (75%) |
