The updated OECD AIS Tracking Dashboard visualises key indicators on maritime activity, ports and trade flows. It retains the country-level indicators on vessel activity, capacity, trade estimates and efficiency measures, while adding new product-level breakdowns that allow users to compare developments across selected commodity groups and identify the main ports for imports and exports. The dashboard also includes a new chokepoints section, currently covering Suez Canal and the Strait of Hormuz, where users can monitor vessel composition and product-level flows through selected strategic maritime passages.

The OECD-ITIC Dashboard enables users to visualize the OECD International transport and insurance costs of merchandise trade (ITIC) dataset. Through its various panels, users can explore how these costs vary by importing country and product, leveraging on the wealth of information available in the OECD-ITIC dataset.
