Welcome to the node-red-contrib-ais-decoder wiki! This wiki contains the up-to-date documentation for the node, replacing the output-spec.* files, which are now redundant

The documentation specifies the input format and the output format. The former is simple; the documentation for the latter is voluminous!

• Input Specification
• Output Specification

To better understand the meaning of the output information, consult these references (particularly the second):

1. Wikipedia article on AIS
2. AIVDM/AIVDO protocol decoding by Eric S. Raymond - full description of AIS message format
3. AIS Application Specific Messages archive
4. ITU-R M.1371-4

Note that this node can be found at the NPM repository and in the Node-red flows website.
