Voyage Data Integrity

One reliable voyage record, even when the reports keep changing.

Propel built voyageGRAPH™ to turn scattered, revised voyage reports into a single record that can be checked. AI reads the documents; fixed rules reconcile the events and preserve every change. The product is live and available through an API for use in your own systems.

Maritime reports connected to a vessel voyage
Who this helps

Fleet operations, performance analysts, compliance teams and commercial or data teams.

The operating problem

Why the work matters.

Noon reports, bunker reports and statements of fact arrive late, use different formats and can contradict one another. Port calls, time at anchor, canal transits and ship-to-ship transfers change how the voyage must be understood. Rebuilding it by hand leaves reporting dependent on incomplete records.

Propel’s contribution

What we developed.

Propel combined maritime operating knowledge, AI-assisted document reading and a repeatable reconciliation engine. Registers, timelines and API access make the agreed record available for operations, emissions reporting, performance and commercial analysis.

How it works

Follow the operational thread.

Connect the information, apply the relevant checks and make the next decision visible.

01

Put every report into a standard format

Read different layouts into shared fields, with validation, field-level confidence and reusable templates. Missing information remains visible as a gap.

02

Build the voyage in event order

Fixed shipping rules order events and determine voyage boundaries and legs. The same reports and settings produce the same record, irrespective of arrival order; unclear events are flagged for review.

03

Resolve conflicts and retain the history

Source priorities and operator corrections govern revisions. The system keeps both when an event happened and when it was reported, preserving displaced values and their sources.

04

Check, accept and reuse the record

Explicit formulas calculate figures from the reconciled record. Teams review gaps before sign-off and control later corrections. Full API access feeds the accepted record into their existing tools.

The user experience

Different roles.
The same evidence.

Dashboards, timelines and work queues make the relevant information available before someone has to ask a question.

Master Voyage Register

Prioritise voyages by status and outstanding issues, then open the reports that need review.

Lifecycle Event Ledger

Follow the event sequence, revisions and the information available at each past decision.

Emissions and compliance

Inspect missing or inconsistent evidence and the maintained reporting rules before finalising figures.

Our glass-box approach

What the user can inspect

  • Original reports and field-level confidence
  • Source precedence, event sequence and retained revisions
  • Accepted record and the calculation or rule version used
The intended value

What this is designed
to improve.

  • Less time rebuilding and reconciling voyages by hand
  • Review effort focused on the voyages with unresolved issues
  • Corrections that remain consistent and explainable
  • A reliable basis for performance, emissions and commercial analysis
  • API access for existing reporting tools and charter-party performance work
  • Data-quality feedback to improve vessel reporting at source
How to evaluate it

Compare reconciliation effort and record quality against expert-reviewed voyage packs. Exercise late arrivals, duplicates and corrections, and check that accepted outputs can be reproduced.

voyageGRAPH™ is live on AWS and available now with full API access. Reporting calculations use maintained rules and an agreed sign-off policy.

Joining up ship and shore

Connect the vessel
to the port’s plans.

Arrival and departure times, time alongside and energy used at berth on earlier calls help ports forecast when shore power will be needed and for how long. This voyage history complements the onboard equipment and electrical-load information available through Full Fathom AI.
