summary: 2.3 Currently Anchored Vessels
deprecated: false
description: '## Description
The Currently Anchored Vessels retrieves information of all vessels currently at the port anchorage using the port’s five-digit port code. Returned data includes the total count of vessels waiting at the port anchorage, vessel type, basic vessel details, port arrival time and vessel dwell time.
## Use Cases
1. Analyze the average patterns of vessel operation duration based on the dwell time of different vessel types in the returned dataset.
2. For logistic operations, filter vessels by type from the list of currently berthed vessels to identify suitable carriers for cargo transportation.
3. For vessel bunkering and marine equipment upgrade scenarios, obtain the list of in-port vessels first, then query vessel profiles to check equipment and other details, so as to identify targets eligible for bunkering services or equipment upgrade recommendations.

summary: 2.4 Inbound / Expected Arrivals
deprecated: false
description: '## Description
The Inbound/Expected Arrivals retrieves the list and detailed information of vessels expected to arrive at a target port within a specified future time period, using the port’s five-digit port code and the query time period.
## Use Cases
1. **Maritime Supervision**
Filter vessels by type and flag state based on the inbound vessel schedule for a specified future period. It allows advance allocation of customs or border inspection resources, and supports risk vessel analysis by combining historical abnormal AIS events, vessel alongside records and other relevant information.
2. **Logistics Vessel Sourcing**
Filter the list of inbound cargo vessels at ports near the shipping warehouse, and launch cargo booking solicitations by referring to the operating company information in vessel profiles or the vessel contact list maintained in the corporate shipping capacity pool.
3. **Maritime Traffic Analysis**
Analyze port carrying capacity and the attribute profiles of all inbound vessels scheduled to arrive at the port.
