find_vessels_in_area | Vessels currently inside a latitude/longitude bounding box, newest report first, with optional kind and ship-type filters. Use for what is in a port, a strait, or a stretch of coast. Anonymous calls may cover 100 square degrees per call. |
find_vessels_near | Vessels within a radius (default 10 NM, maximum 50) of a point or of another vessel's last known position, nearest first, each with distance and bearing from the centre. Use for what is near this position or what is around vessel X. |
