World Shipping Council launches global digital Whale Chart
Original: World Shipping Council launch digital global Whale Chart with HUB Ocean
The World Shipping Council, together with the ocean data non-profit HUB Ocean, has launched a digital global Whale Chart. The tool is designed to map whale presence and help shipping routes reduce vessel strikes on whales, building on the traditional Whale Chart used by mariners. Details on coverage and adoption by shipping lines are not yet available.
Why now: The launch is new and highlights growing shipping-industry efforts to protect whales from vessel collisions.
