This repository hosts the scripts that have been used to carry out the analysis of ship domain / ship encounters based on AIS data.

The workflow is described in the Unix Makefile. The database and host parameters need to be set in the Makefile.

It expects a Postgres installation, where PostGIS is enabled (and has certain tablespaces configured). Moreover, connection information was stored inside .pgpass.

The work has been described in the following paper: http://www.gdmc.nl/publications/2021/Ship_Domain_Variations_Strait_of_Istanbul.pdf.
