Filtering AIS to display only certain vessels

I am just wondering if anyone is aware of any way to filter the AIS feed / layer in OSM so that it only shows specific vessels? If so, is this documented anywhere?

Eg Display the location of a specific vessels specified using one or more MSSI numbers.

thanks,

James

It has been a while since I posted the above. Is this sort of AIS functionality not of interest to anyone else?

Re: Filtering AIS to display only certain vessels

I am still very much interested in the original question.

lots of use cases - an easy one would be to enable users to monitor ferries or family of yachtsmen to watch progress of competitors in a race.

Anyone know who implemented the AIS functionality?  How could I find out?
