It has numerous pictograms from which you can read easily, whether you are looking at a marine, a wharf or an anchorage ground and a lot more. Additionally, the map is clearly arranged thanks to colourful pictograms. What each pictogram means, can be seen in the picture below.

Whether you are searching for types of anchorage grounds, type of country or region, services for a ship or crew, comments added by fellow users or types of attractions, in other words, POIs. You can create various combinations according to your preferences that you are interested in.
After opening a pictogram with a location, you find here ton of information that contain the name of the location, coordinates for determining an exact location and the name of the location, region, or country. Contact information, such as e-mail or web site of locality with a list of free captains that crew can contact in case of emergency is important as well. Facilities of locality is marked with pictograms, that indicate a restaurant, a shop, water and electricity source and a lot more. We cooperate with the Norwegian Meteorological Institute and with a company named Windy, thanks to which we provide our users with weather forecast for the next 3 days and online information about wind conditions, as well as about cloudiness, precipitations, visibility, fog, or pressure. All these information is important for the captain as well as for the rest of crew. In each locality you can find whether the anchorage ground is available as well as the information about distance and comments by fellow users as well as photos of the locality.
