In SailGrib WR, you can receive AIS data either from the receiver installed on your boat or via the Internet. The local flow will always have priority over the one from the Internet.
If your boat is equipped with an AIS receiver and the stream is available in WiFi, prefer this stream.
If you are connected to the Internet and the area is covered by the AISHub service you will be able to see and use this stream in real time. AISHub is a real-time AIS data sharing network to which SailGrib contributes and subscribes. Warning, not all areas are covered by AISHub.
You will find the AISHub coverage map here

We strongly encourage you to contribute by sharing data from your AIS receiver while sailing. This will turn your boat into a mobile station.
Targets received by your boat’s AIS receiver will be displayed in green, those received by Internet in blue.
