Maritime traffic monitoring is an important aspect of safety and security, particularly in close to port operations. While there is a large amount of data with variable quality, decision makers need reliable information about possible situations or threats. To address this requirement, we propose extraction of normal ship trajectory patterns that builds clusters using, besides ship tracing data, the publicly available International Maritime Organization (IMO) rules. The main result of clustering is a set of generated lanes that can be mapped to those defined in the IMO directives. Since the model also takes non-spatial attributes (speed and direction) into account, the results allow decision makers to detect abnormal patterns — vessels that do not obey the normal lanes or sail with higher or lower speeds.
