Oil Spill Causes Shipping Backup in Gulf of Mexico
Here at SkyTruth we track vessels with satellite imagery, and also with other satellite-collected data. Here’s a view of the situation using satellite Automated Information System (AIS) data, radio-frequency tracking information that vessels continually broadcast so they can avoid running into each other at sea:
Detail from above, showing large offshore holding area where dozens of cargo ships and tankers lie at anchor, awaiting clearance to enter the ship channel (marked by dashed pink line).
This shows a large “waiting room” in the Gulf just outside the entrance to the channel where dozens of vessels — mostly oil tankers and cargo ships — are anchored, waiting for clearance to proceed into port. There are also quite a few vessels bottled up in port, waiting to get out, including a few large cruise ships.
You can see some of the AIS data yourself, and query individual vessels, at the cool Marine Traffic ship-tracking site.
