SONAR Container Atlas empowers transportation teams to gauge risk, manage fluctuations, and pinpoint cost-savings opportunities. Benchmark your current performance and costs against the market, your peers and your budget. Generate accurate container forecasting based on container shipping rates, global port conditions or carrier transit times and gain shipment visibility data to:
Shippers, carriers, freight brokers and 3PLs rely on Container Atlas freight market intelligence to understand trends in vessel delays and price movements to mitigate risk. Make more informed and profitable decisions using near real-time carrier capacity and service metrics.
SONAR Container Atlas helps users gauge the risk of pursuing the quickest transit time by comparing port-to-port average transit times and rate fluctuations. Navigate ocean container markets with certainty and determine cost vs. speed tradeoffs with ease.
SONAR Container Atlas’s data gives users a leading indicator of TEU volumes and rate pressures in container trade lanes. Rather than relying on customs data for lagging indicators of volume, Container Atlas users see the volumes being booked with carriers before the vessel departs, at the point of origin.
In times of extreme unpredictability, SONAR Container Atlas gives supply chain participants the fastest and most comprehensive look at ocean markets and cargo analytics available. Get multidimensional ocean freight data to find the right partner and keep your freight moving smoothly.
Container Atlas measures container ship capacity at a lane level in two ways: by the percentage of container bookings that are being rejected at the port of origin and by the total capacity of the vessels allocated to services on a given lane. See how capacity changes over time and how carriers respond to volume pressures.
Gain the clearest image of current carrier capacity by selecting the origin and destination ports. See ocean container volumes as well as the percentage of rejected bookings, transit times and booking lead times, giving a holistic view of market conditions.
Check container dwell times at ports of discharge and understand delays. Take into account transit times and congestion to make better decisions. Utilize SONAR’s surface-level transportation data to determine cost-effective deviations to the port of entry, such as dry van transport post-berth.
See into the future by capturing ocean container volume data when the shipments are booked, before they hit the water. Utilize SONAR Container Atlas to make impactful, proactive decisions and improve your negotiations and container forecasting.
