The globe needs WebGL, which this browser has switched off. Every survey is still listed alongside.

Where it comes from

Every survey vessel at work has to tell mariners where it is and how much sea room it needs. Those notices are public. Wide Berth reads the official Notices to Mariners twice a day and draws each survey where its notice puts it.

What it is not

Not a vessel tracker and not for navigation. A notice says where work is permitted, not where the ship is this minute. Regions that publish only nationally are not covered yet. Always use the official broadcast at sea.

Why it is free

Because the notices are. The judgement on top — what a spread like that means for your programme — is what Standard Wavelength is for.
