World Shipping Council Launches Digital Whale Chart with HUB Ocean

The World Shipping Council, together with ocean data nonprofit HUB Ocean, has launched a digital whale chart designed to help ships avoid whales by mapping where the animals are found. The tool is aimed at reducing ship strikes, a leading cause of whale deaths, by giving vessel operators better information to adjust routes and speeds in areas where whales are present.

Why now: New mapping technology to reduce whale collisions with ships is drawing attention from shipping and ocean conservation communities.
