Question by henrique.hissataka · Sep 15, 2020 at 04:08 PM · rdprdp library.rdp playground

Is it possible to get a ship (tanker) positioning using RDP?

I am checking if the RDP Service can get some information about ships:

- location

- information (type, velocity)

- status

- arrival / departure dates

These data are available through Eikon, but it would be better to use an API for using on a system. RDP looks like the best API option, but when investigating the Postman files or the playground, I didn't find a suitable API call.

Is there anybody that can help me with this issue? Thanks

Hello @henrique.hissataka,

If you are permissioned for service Search on RDP, on API Playground, you can review all the information available for the vessel info access via RDP. To me, detailed vessel Information, status and dates appear to be included, while location info, in my understanding, is indirect. Let me just go over usage:

/search/beta1/

And by modifying the parameters, one can get default vessel info via:

{   "View": "VesselPhysicalAssets",   "Query": "9398101", } 

Next, we would like to know what other fields of interest are available, and can be requested ( may not be populated, via metadata endpoint:

/search/beta1/metadata/views/{view}

I just requested the specific vessel info

Hope this is of help

Thanks for the response, it helped me a lot. Using the call you have suggested, I was able to retrieve most of the fields that I had to map.

But there are two more questions that you might know the answer:

- Is the RDP Search call in pre-release / beta state or it can be used for production code?

- There are some fields that were retrieved using Eikon Excel (TR Formula), but I wasn't able to find the equivalent on RDP. Is there a data domain documentation that can help in this 'translation' process? For example, the fields TR.AssetFlowCommodity and TR.AssetFlowGrade.

Hi @henrique.hissataka,

-I am trying to verify with the product for you, and it's taking time.

-On API PLayground, use Metadata service, run

https://api.refinitiv.com/discovery/search/v1/metadata/views/VesselPhysicalAssets

Tab "Raw" will give you all the available fields on VesselPhysicalAssets view.

Additionally Reference may be helpful, but in my opinion, metadata is both live and complete, so superior documentation.

Hi @Henrique Hissataka, please look at this example from GitHub on search examples from RDPhttps://github.com/Refinitiv-API-(Samples/Example.RDPLibrary.Python.Search/blob/master/Example.RDPLibrary.Python.Search.ipynb.) Within the document you will an example of how to get vessel data into python where you can modify as you wish. I would couple this example with the suggestion above to know what is available to add. However, you can get the vessel location with TR.AssetLocationLatitude or TR.AssetLocationLongitude. You can use any fields that are in the Physical Assets section in the Excel taxonomy within the RDP search parameters.
