Voyage Intelligence API

The Voyage Intelligence API delivers automated, optimized, and regulation‑aware voyage plans, tailored to the vessel's specific parameters. Designed for seamless integration into maritime solutions, the Voyage Intelligence API produces safe, efficient, and ECDIS‑ready routes using global routing intelligence.

Receive Safe, Updated Routes

The Voyage Intelligence API incorporates data directly from the Route Network Database, the core dataset maintained and updated by the Route Network team. Weekly updates, and optional daily updates, ensure every calculation reflects the latest Notices to Mariners and NavArea warnings. When a user calls the API, safety-critical and regulatory data is combined with the vessel’s characteristics and operating conditions to generate an ECDIS-ready, navigationally safe, and compliant route.

Capabilities Across Maritime Applications

Voyage Planning & Routing Services

Voyage planning and routing services that re‑sell safe, optimized routes, complying with an extensive range of requirements. These providers use the API to deliver consistent, regulation‑aware routing without the overhead of maintaining their own data or compliance logic.

Large Shipping Companies

Large shipping companies directly sourcing their route plan from the Voyage Intelligence API. They integrate the API into internal systems to streamline voyage planning, reduce manual workload, and ensure every route meets operational and regulatory standards.

Smarter Route Planning Through Integrated Data

Combine route and vessel specific parameters for safe routes of outstanding quality, complying with a wide range of restrictions worldwide.

The Route: The routing engine, with an integrated database of nautical and regulatory information, produces an ECDIS-ready, compliant route.

The Vessel: The API includes a comprehensive set of the vessel’s relevant characteristics in the calculations.

Stay up‑to‑date, stay safe

Updates to the Route Network Database, the heart of the API, are made daily. Each proposed route incorporates the latest Notices to Mariners and NavArea warnings, with optional daily updates for maximum accuracy.

Reduce Crew Workload

The Voyage Intelligence API delivers a fully navigable, ECDIS-ready route, automatically accounting for safety parameters, internal waters, territorial seas, ECAs, and other restrictions. This creates a trusted environment that reduces manual workload and minimizes route editing, allowing navigators to focus on effective risk assessment.

Routing Capabilities Built for Professional Mariners

Shortest Safe Berth‑to‑Berth Routing: Provides the shortest safe route in RTZ format, fully tailored to the vessel’s details.
Customisable Routes: Offers advanced route control by incorporating MustGo and NoGo Areas, as well as Internal Waters, Territorial Waters, ECAs, and other navigational constraints into the proposed route.
Integrated Weather Routing: Optionally enriches route calculations through the fully integrated Weather‑Routing API.
ECDIS Route Check: Includes an ECDIS‑like compliance check, detecting navigational dangers and ensuring required standards are met.
Navigation‑Ready Data Delivery: Supplies an up‑to‑date voyage plan with waypoints, schedule, and supporting compliance information.
Performance: Optional fine‑tuning helps monitor and optimise voyage performance, including CO₂ and CII metrics, fuel consumption, and routing to fixed ETA, speed, engine load, or RPM.

What Sets Us Apart

Precisely Customised Routes

Our routing service delivers highly precise, partner‑focused route plans with exceptional flexibility. Users can define Custom Must‑Go and No‑Go Areas to shape routes to their exact operational needs.

Expert‑Led Route Quality

Developed and maintained by Master Mariners, the Route Network database embeds real-world expertise into the underlying safety critical data. The routing engine then applies this dynamically to generate routes that match crew decision-making.

Broad Range of Variables Considered

Vessel‑specific details, such as dimensions, load state, and cargo, are fully factored into performance optimisation. This is strengthened by route‑specific data from multiple sources and the optional integrated Weather Routing API, with post‑voyage performance data available for deeper analysis.

Data‑Driven, Compliant Planning

Every response provides the best safe route in RTZ format, built from data meticulously sourced by the Route Network team. The API captures route‑specific restrictions, seasonal speed limits, non‑digitised local rules, isolated dangers, and vessel‑type‑specific warnings, reducing risk and helping avoid costly routing errors.
