Abstract
Automatic Identification System (AIS) data provides crucial information about vessel trajectories. However, raw AIS data is often highly redundant, containing overlapping and repetitive routes, which complicates its direct use in maritime applications such as navigation planning and route prediction. In this paper, we propose an improved simplification algorithm designed to extract typical routes while preserving vessel movement continuity. Our approach simplifies complex AIS data by applying an enhanced distance threshold pruning technique and analyzing the continuity of vessel operations to address route segment discontinuities and coordinate deviations.We conducted experiments to evaluate the impact of the simplification algorithm on deep learning applications, specifically in trajectory prediction and anomaly detection. The results demonstrate that the simplified data significantly…
