We developed an extended ImageManager , which makes it possible to manage all of Your images and upload multiple images quickly for later adjustments on the server. Searching for vessels inside the tool is very fast, so give it a try and some comments to us!
We hope this will make your work much easier.

Listening to user-comments over the last months, we decided to extend the ways to upload images to DS.
In our works right now is an uploader, which gives you more convinience when editing your images. Starting features are:

– stored profiles for users, so the can
– prepare tag, name, research IMOs without a website
– when ready upload multiple images with one click to multiple spotting sites

Since there is soon a long free weekend in Germany, we are optimistic to present results the week after Pentecost :)

over the last month we opened our server for public sharing and arranged happily to show new areas of AIS coverage. Take a look at the Region-Section of “Fleetmon” to track now also vessels in Houston, Vancouver and Aalborg….

Thanks to Lars Schmidt from Denmark, Oleg Kovalyov from Canada and John Astad from the US.
We’re just preparing a section on the site to explain the process (it’s easy :)

We had again a downtime of our servers this morning, after getting hacked. This happend twice over the last week, so we did some real log-research and found reasons. A bug in the open source software “cacti”, used for statistical monitoring, made it possible to compromise the server and kept our admin busy for a couple hours. Read the story about “zombies” here (sorry, only in german)
We’ve been online again since 11:00.

We make live Position Infos available on rendered Maps for all registered Users. You will find maps for every Vessel on the Ships Detail Page

New Feature: Users of Digital-Seas can now decide with their votes, in which order images are shown in overviews or detail pages for vessels.

We are done now with the new menu-structure and our “design refurbish”. Thanks for your patience over the last week with all those different mockups. History: We increased the tracking position views of ships to six maps on the detail-page.
Also, users can now leave comments on every vessel with a wiki like style. We extended the fields of the user profil. You can now select the rendering of a disclaimer onto your images as an option. … more to come, please make use of it.
