## What is VesselScope?

Track ships in real time. VesselScope displays live marine vessel positions on an interactive map using AIS data — the same system used by commercial shipping worldwide.

What you'll see:
  - Real-time positions of cargo ships, tankers, ferries, sailboats, and more
  - Speed, heading, destination, and navigation status for each vessel
  - Washington State Ferry routes with live ETAs and terminal info

Key features:
  - Live AIS vessel tracking via AISStream.io or your own local AIS receiver
  - Search by vessel name, MMSI, or destination
  - Filter stationary vs. underway vessels
  - Closest Point of Approach (CPA) calculations

VesselScope Pro:
  - Proximity alerts when vessels approach your location
  - Track trails showing vessel paths over time
  - WSF ferry identification with route details and dock status
  - AR view — see vessels through your camera with live telemetry overlays
  - Background monitoring
