Searoutes

Searoutes is a maritime routing and carbon-emissions API platform for logistics, freight forwarding, and supply-chain teams. Its REST APIs compute point-to-point, port-to-point, and port-to-port sea routes with distances and durations (including SECA, HRA, and ice-area avoidance), geocode ports, airports, and places, calculate multimodal CO2e emissions (sea, road, rail, air, inland waterway) using a GLEC-accredited methodology, track vessels via AIS (positions, ETAs, traces, arrivals), look up carriers and services, and return historical, real-time, and forecasted weather along routes. All APIs are served from https://api.searoutes.com and authenticated with an x-api-key header.

Searoutes publishes 6 APIs on the APIs.io network, including CO2 Emissions API, Geocoding API, Ocean Routing API, and 3 more. Tagged areas include Maritime, Sea Routing, Ocean Freight, CO2 Emissions, and Carbon Accounting.

Searoutes’ developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, and 8 more developer resources.
