ShippingExplorer

Those involved in shipping goods overseas are well aware that keeping a close eye on their cargo is a must and tracking the vessel that carries it can be done in a simple way in the modern era. There are dedicated applications that can make the whole monitoring process a lot easier and one of them is ShippingExplorer.

This utility is designed for a very practical purpose, but its GUI is still quite appealing and manages to provide a lot of information in such a way that it is easy to find and read by any user.

Most of the space inside the main window is reserved for the world map, on which the position of every single ship is marked. Navigating around the map and zooming can be done with both mouse and directional keys.

There is also a special pane on the left side of ShippingExplorer and it holds several tabs for organizing and structuring the various details the user may want to check out.

In order to make it easier to identify a cargo ship among the many that are spread all across the map, users can resort to filters. These can help by eliminating from view the vessels that do not match some specific criteria.

Thus, the transports can be grouped by their type, navigational stats, destination or countries. A more detailed set of filters are the remote ones, which can be customized and new items can be registered under each category.

In case the user wants to find a certain port, there is a dedicated area inside ShippingExplorer where this can be done. All ports are grouped under their country flag and this makes it facile to get to that location on the map.

With in-depth analysis capabilities, alerts and several types of maps included, ShippingExplorer is definitely one of the best choices for those who need to follow a cargo to its destination.
