Move on to new features.
Tracking System
We are proud to announce that we have added support for Rif Line, Kalypso Compagnia di Navigazione SpA, Hecny Shippin, UWL, and Seatrad, bringing our total number of supported carriers to 163, along with 12 leasing companies. This makes our platform unique in its ability to support a wide variety of providers. You can find the updated list of shipping lines here.
We are pleased to announce that the Predictive ETA parameter has been added. If the shipping company has not provided an ETA, we will now calculate one using our system. In addition, API users will receive notifications by email when the API call limit is reached. Reminders will be sent when 90% of the limit has been used.
Also, we have improved the logic for determining locations for outdated UN/LOCODE, updating vessel data, processing leasing company data, and route building.
