description=Receive, decode and plot live AIS vessel traffic from serial or TCP sources, with guard-zone alarms and coverage mapping.
about=AIS Watchkeeper turns QGIS into a live maritime traffic console. It
    connects to an AIS receiver over USB/serial or a raw TCP stream, decodes
    !AIVDM/!AIVDO sentences, and plots vessels live on the map with trails,
    speed vectors and a learned vessel registry. The built-in AIS Guardian
    raises alarms on guard-zone entry/exit and navigation-status changes, maps
    Class A/B reception coverage, and lists nearby vessels with CPA/TCPA.
    Requires pyserial and pyais (bundled).
version=0.46.0
changelog=0.46.0 - History tab, startup usage notice, and UX polish.
    A new "History" tab browses the recorded voyage archive: a sortable, filterable
    table (name/MMSI search, time window, and an "only voyages crossing the current
    map view" area filter), with draw-one-track, draw-all-tracks-for-a-vessel and
    Export CSV; the "Delete history" button moved here. A usage/privacy notice now
    appears on startup and must be accepted before any AIS handling begins. One
    click on the toolbar icon opens the panel (previously it took two). Reception
    coverage is now kept per source (own antenna vs an internet feed such as
    Kystverket or aisstream), not just per position. Recording modes renamed:
    1 Textual, 2 Voyages, 3 Full. The Settings box was tidied, and trackless
    voyages left over from interrupted sessions are cleaned up automatically.
    The full changelog is found in the user manual.
