Shipxy MCP Server is a fully MCP-compliant, open-source Location-Based Service (LBS) solution for maritime scenarios, providing a comprehensive suite of ship and port APIs and tools for developers and AI agents. It enables seamless integration of real-time vessel data, route planning, weather, tides, and more into your applications.

šŸš€ Introduction

Shipxy MCP Server empowers your applications, LLMs, and agents with advanced maritime data and geospatial intelligence, including:

  • Ship Information & Tracking: Real-time vessel position, static info, fleet, and area queries.

  • Port & Berth Data: Global port search, berth/anchor/ETA queries, port call records.

  • Route Planning: Point-to-point and port-to-port route planning.

  • Weather & Tides: Marine weather, typhoon, and tide station data.

  • Rich Maritime APIs: Ship registry, particulars, approach events, and more.

All APIs follow the MCP protocol and can be called from any MCP-compliant client, LLM, or agent platform.
