Tracking System
The long-awaited news for many users and customers, and great news for partners using tracking on their website - which came in a free update. Now SeaRates tracking supports the 20 shipping lines.
Nice news for developers using the tracking API for third-party products, their own ERP- and TMS-systems, as well as for the execution of projects of other customers. Optimized and improved the performance of the new location module. Made minor improvements to API documentation (added 2 new event codes - Land Transshipment (LTS), Barge Transshipment (BTS)) and updated the list of supported shipping lines. Made minor improvements to work with COSCO, CMA CGM, APL, MSC, OOCL, ZIM, Hapag Lloyd, Hamburg Sud, Yang Ming. There are also a lot of bug fixes and other smaller improvements coming your way, to make the Tracking System experience even more enjoyable than it already is.
On requests of API connection please write to us to [email protected], and your personal manager will help with integration.

Load Calculator
Load Calculator is one of the classic SeaRates applications. It allows you to find the optimal loading plan of the vehicle in just a few steps, taking into account all the physical and geometric characteristics of the cargo. The tool supports the function of palletizing and all the main parameters.
In development: improving the loading algorithm. The algorithm allows you to load billions of boxes, barrels in a matter of seconds. As a result of all the improvements, it will be possible to stuff millions of containers in a matter of seconds.
See manual for Stuffing Calculator.
Cargo Wizard
Good news for those looking forward to a new version of Cargo Wizard. It will be possible to add products without packaging soon. Unpackaged products are bulk cargo or bulky but light products (sawdust) for the transportation of which the user can specify tonnes or volume in m3.
In development: functionality for the transportation of goods by such types of packaging as barrels, sacks, and big-bags.
Now the documents comply with international standards and you can put your electronic signature.
