Canal Passages

Canals are routing points that will by default show as a separate port call in the port rotation in order to address the time and cost involved with canal passages directly to the canal. The canal time and cost has a direct impact on the result and length of a voyage. Each canal is defined by a unique code and name.

Available canal passages in Dataloy VMS:

Canal Passages:	Code:
Bosporus Canal	BO
Corinth Canal	CC
Kiel Canal	KC

Piracy Routing

To date, nine piracy routing points have been added to retrieve the most accurate distance based on current routing advice in high risk areas. The piracy routing points are not added to a voyage rotation by default, but must always be entered be manually and only using their respective piracy routing code. Each is defined by a unique code and name.

Available Piracy Routing Points:
