Integrators providing a vessel-routing service for route planners get source information from the Route Network Database. Typically, this forms an input for them to customise their own services and products.
The database serves a range of solution partners, from companies building optimisation tools for commercial shipping, to developers of autonomous vessel systems, each using it as a trusted, expert-maintained data foundation.
Skip building a global route network from scratch. A precomputed, validated foundation is ready to integrate immediately.
Leverage a validated safety and compliance foundation so you can focus on developing routing algorithms that deliver safe, compliant and optimized routes.
The database integrates all relevant data from nautical charts, governmental regulations, local authorities, pilot associations and much more.
Master Mariners enhance the database, contributing navigational expertise to integrators focused on other specialisations.
T&P Notices to Mariners and NavArea Warnings are updated daily and provided as an additional overlay, enabling routing systems to account for them during route planning.
Non-digitised information from local authorities is converted into a machine-readable format, providing the best available inputs for voyage safety.
The system incorporates national and local information, enabling true vessel‑centric routing with full consideration of vessel dimensions and characteristics.
Updated weekly with bathymetric data, navigation-constraints data, spot soundings, and CATZOC, plus daily updates of NavArea Warnings.
Intelligent recognition of chart objects automatically identifies hazardous areas and bounds them off from routing options, ensuring that integrator‑created routes cannot cross these risks and always follow the safest possible path.
Ongoing contributions from customers help continuously enhance the route network. Feedback and requests from thousands of MyRA and Data vessels are incorporated, ensuring real-world routing scenarios are validated, integrated, and maintained for consistency and reliability.
The Route Network Database serves as the backbone of NavCloud, the routing solutions ecosystem of Raymarine Commercial.
