Marine Traffic Tracker is an Android application designed for maritime enthusiasts, professionals, and anyone interested in tracking vessels across the world’s oceans. This tool offers various features for casual users and experts.
Ship tracking

The application offers an intuitive and interactive map interface that allows users to zoom in, navigate to different regions, and focus on specific areas. It is possible to sort and display ships based on various criteria such as type, size, or flag. There is an option to adjust map layers.
Moreover, the utility serves as a comprehensive database for maritime infrastructure. You may access information about ports worldwide, including facilities, berths, and current traffic. Also, the app provides data on lighthouses, buoys, and other navigational aids. This data is useful for voyage planning.
