We update our data with the latest vessel locations every day. We use this data in combination with schedule data to determine where a vessel is and where it should have been at that time.

These include steamship lines such as MSC, Maersk, Sealand,COSCO, Eimskip, HMM, Evergreen, Unifeeder, Hamburg Sud, and air cargo operators such as Cargolux, Polar Air, Korean Air, Lufthansa, Air China Cargo, Turkish Airlines and UPS Airlines.
