Create custom map views to track and monitor vessels
The default map screen includes all vessels on the water with a live AIS signal.
Refine the map to reflect vessels that fit your business preference by clicking on the 'Ships' icon 
to open a drop-down menu of filters.
You can filter vessels by Ship Type, Specifications, and Advertised tonnage.
Filter by Ship Type - click on 'cargo' and toggle 'on' the preferred ship type (notice your map in the background starts to clear as you set filters)
You will see more filtering options by toggling Work Vessel, Passenger, Other

Enable Advertised Ships - filter the map view to see only vessels that have been advertised to you as being open by applying any one/a combination/or all of the following 5 sub-filters ...
- Open Dates (highlight a fixed date range or pre-select a rolling, spot onwards date range)
- Sender
- Open Areas
- Pref Direction
- Business Preferences
- Commercial Status
- Last Known Cargoes Advertised
Consider creating multiple tabs to:
- Follow a fleet or a group of vessels or a specific vessel of interest
- Check for advertised open tonnage, of a certain DWT, for a region, within a given date range and vessels that that are preferably grain clean
- Check vessels in ballast condition, by setting a draft percentage limit
- Check the map view of a different screen e.g. Inbox, Orders, Tonnage or Fixtures
