Missing Sentinel 2 data that feeds vessel detections
The data source we use for our Sentinel 2 vessel detections and fixed Infrastructure datasets is experiencing an issue.
Inconsistency in AIS filters leads to events without tracks
Events and vessel detections may show in our platform, but tracks are missing.
