Configuring a speed range in an Area of Interest (AOI) allows a user to view AIS-transmitting vessels on the map that are traveling at a targeted speed or speed range for a specified time or distance.

...

To monitor speed range events you must first create an area of interest and configure the speed range event in the AOI.

...

Area Size Limits

Areas larger than 1,000,000 sq km cannot be configured for speed range events - if your area is larger than this limit we recommend breaking the area up into smaller sections (e.g. northern half, southern half) 

...

Once configured, the system will start to monitor speed ranges within a few minutes. When a vessel meets the criteria of the speed range, it will be displayed on the map as an event.

...

Duration of Events

The event will continue for as long as the vessel's speed continues within the range. For example, if the range is defined as 13-60 km for 3 nautical miles and the vessel travels for 16 then 14 then 15 km for 3 nautical miles, then the speed icon is displayed on the map. If the vessel continues at 13-60 km for an additional nautical mile, it will still be counted as a single event. The speed range event ends when the vessel’s AIS transmission indicates it is no longer traveling 13-60 km. A second speed event will occur when the vessel’s AIS transmissions again indicate it is traveling 13-60 km for 3 nm. The same is true for time. If the range is defined as 10-14 km for 1 hour, the event displays on the map after the vessel travels 10-14 km for 1 hour. If the vessel continues traveling 10-14 beyond 1 hour, then the event will continue.

...

There may be instances when the average speed for an event is slightly outside of the configured range. Typically this is due to the vessel accelerating or decelerating at the end of a segment.
