For the base of Ala Batavorum, it must have been before 62-63CE, as their station for this time was Xanten(?) . After the Batavian revolt, they were moved to Noricum or Raetia, then in Pannonia after 85CE until 109CE. The unit was made milliaria after 98CE.
It then served in the Dacian Wars, (AE 1987 00829) and were garrisoned in Romania (IDR 03-04-79b to IDR 03-04-82). Moved to Dacia Superior early in the reign of Hadrian. They were possibly transferred temporarily to Pannonia superior for the Marcomannic Wars. Their third century garrison is unknown, but possibly Syria Palaestina.
