About Datalastic Maritime MCP Server
Equip your AI agent with real-time global maritime intelligence through the Datalastic MCP server. This integration provides instant access to detailed information on thousands of vessels and ports worldwide. Your agent can search for ships by name, retrieve exhaustive metadata (including MMSI, status, and flag), and track real-time positions and ETAs for specific vessels. It also allows searching for maritime ports by country to find official UN/LOCODEs. Whether you are managing global logistics, auditing supply chains, or researching maritime traffic, your agent acts as a dedicated port captain and logistics analyst through natural conversation.
Cline operates autonomously inside VS Code. it reads your codebase, plans a strategy, and executes multi-step tasks including Datalastic Maritime tool calls without waiting for prompts between steps. Connect 8 tools through Vinkius and Cline can fetch data, generate code, and commit changes in a single autonomous run.
What you can do
- Vessel Search & Specs — Find commercial ships by name and retrieve robust technical dimensions and tonnages.
- Navigation Intelligence — Retrieve real-time positions, ETAs, and historical AIS tracking paths for specific vessels.
- Geofence Discovery — Find all active vessels and cargo tankers located within a specific circular radius instantly.
- Port Insights — Discover maritime ports by country or name and retrieve exact geolocations and UN/LOCODEs.
