Overview
The Cruise Globe provides a free platform for cruise enthusiasts to track, relive, and share cruise experiences using AIS satellite data to map ocean-going ships from 2015 onward, with print maps available as add-ons. The service uses AIS tracking to generate detailed ship routes; users can log their cruises, view precise routes, and share their logs, with physical prints sold separately. It sets itself apart by offering accurate, long-term ship-history data starting in 2015, a focus on cruise journeys, and optional print maps while the core service remains free. Its goal is to broaden the catalog to include older cruises with predicted routes by 2025 and monetize through print map sales while keeping the digital platform free.
