CargoFP - Version 6.0
about 1 month ago by Oskar Flegel
In this release, we have lowered the hurdles for using our API as well as significantly improved the results.
New Features:
- Operational Factors: Operational factors for response to post-voyage shipments were added to make emissions more explainable.
- Ship Identification by Name: You can now use the ship_name parameter to select a vessel, in addition to the imo_number. Ideal for users without immediate access to IMO data.
- Net Cargo Calculations: Due to the accreditation of our method by the Smart Freight Center, additional parameters (see “Net Cargo Calculations”) have been added to the response.
Changes:
- Renamed Parameters:
departure_portandarrival_porthave been renamed todeparture_port_codeandarrival_port_coderespectively, for clarity and consistency. - Improved Error Handling: The
unknown_porterror messages are now more informative, making it easier to correct input issues. - AIS Outlier Handling: For AIS outliers (e.g., due to spoofing), fallback mechanisms have been introduced whereby pre-voyage emissions are returned instead of incorrect/corrupted post-voyage emissions.
- Max Speed Adjustments: Max speed values for ships have been slightly adjusted/corrected to provide even more accurate emissions.
- IMO Number Validation: CargoFP now checks for proper IMO formatting to reduce input errors and improve response reliability.
