ChartCo has an extensive tracings service that addresses this very issue, removing the burden from the mariner and providing a reliable method of ensuring up to date folios of charts.

Tracings are distributed weekly or at other intervals according to requirements and can be shipped directly to vessels or consolidated for delivery to offices of shipping agents.

  • Efficient and accurate correcting method.
  • Up to 90% time saving in chart correction process.

We produce approximately 10,000 tracings per year along with notice to mariners updates that we distribute across the world covering ADMIRALTY, US charts and other official charts from national hydrographic offices.
