Hi Everybody,
I have problem with the Plugin called: AirReporter.

Setup:
- OpenPlotter Setting 2.3.0
- SignalK 1.37.4
- AisReporter 1.0.1

I configured Settings in SignalK with all details of my boat (settings.png in attach).
The Plugin works and send out the AIVDM strings.
The string with static data is the following:
AIVDM,1,1,,A,H3cWkv4T00000009Akjpm01p08u0,0*7C
If I use a decoder online I can see that all the details on the size of the boat are completely different from what I insert in the settings (decode.jpg in attach)

As you can see from the pictures:
- Lenght of the boat insert: 15
- Beam of the boat insert: 5
- Lenght of the vessel on the AIVDM string: 15
- Beam of the vessel in the AIVDM string: 69

Unfortunately the same details are the same also on Marine Traffic.

Any idea?

Thanks
Ciao

Better to ask signalk, though they do drop in here sometimes.

Hello Spidgrou

what´s the source of your AIS data, many standalone devices use their own AIS defaults.

The signalk plugin is creating the ais data, then sending it over the Web to marine traffic.
Sorry Paddy, but this is not the Question. The Plugin only takes the incoming AIVDM or AIVDO Sentences and forwards these via Network.

Apologies, maybe it does. 
Still a question for signalk though, there's an app channel on their slack feed, usually replies are fast.

Though from the screenshot the GPS antenna is 5m away from the centre of the boat and the beam is 5m, might be worth setting that to 2.5m so the GPS is on the boat to see if that helps.

Edit. Looking at the code again I think you're actually wrong, looks like the plugin creates n ais message from signalk data of the boat position and other data. How could it get your own boat from an ais receiver?

Yeah, that's true, this plugin just create a new string from the data insert in defaults.json of Signalk.

It also uses position, heading, cog & sog. 

What does your signalk databrowser say for design.beam?
