Abstract: The loading of Automatic Identification System equipment on low-orbiting satellites can adapt to the demand of exchanging data and information with greater “capacity” brought by the AIS data information of ships in deep waters that cannot be covered by land-based stations. The information in the satellite AIS data contains a large number of potential features of ship activities, and by selecting the ship satellite AIS data of typical months in the South China Sea in 2020. Data mining, geographic information system, and traffic flow theory are used to visualize and analyze the ship activities in the South China Sea. The study shows that the distribution of ship routes in the South China Sea is highly compatible with the recommended routes of merchant ships, and the width of the track belt is obviously characterized. The number of ships passing through the southern waters of the Taiwan Strait has increased significantly, and the focus of traffic safety in the South China Sea should also focus on major route belt and important straits.
