Short Description
The Dataloy Distance Table (DDT) allows routing point/port searches when building/entering port rotations by:
- routing point/port name and location on a map
- a routing point's/port's unique code
- different spellings/shortening of various routing point/port names
- local/specialised characters
Routing point/port searches can be performed in two ways, either in the search field or by using a map.
Long Description
To Search for Routing Point/Port Using the Search Field
