This article provides all the relevant steps that a user can follow in order to plan a vessel’s optimal route.

As Vessel Owners/ Managers, one of the top challenges of your business is to ensure the safety of the vessels’ voyage.

How can you do that?

One very quick and efficient way for you would be to:

Use Weather Layers on the Live Map

After you have generated your preferred route, you can see the available Weather Map layers that will give you deep insight into the predicted conditions during your future voyage.

You can browse through the Wind layers with the gust, flow and speed and direction options.
From there, you can check the Wave layers for a visual display of height and direction, wave period, swell and more layers. The Weather layers can give you a clear view of the temperature, cloud density, humidity, snowfall as well as3h precipitation and an available Risk layer with the division of weather-related risk conditions of the previous 24 hours. The Sea Level Pressure layer displays the air pressure at sea level in hPa (Hectopascal).
