What it does
This module integrates SeaRoutes Ocean Routing APIs into the unified routing
framework provided by to_geo_routes. It enables Odoo/Viindoo to compute realistic
maritime routes, distances, and travel durations between ports and coastal
locations.
The module introduces a dedicated transport provider for the water mode,
making ocean routing fully compatible with any feature that depends on
transport.mode.provider. When combined with inland routing providers such as
Google, Mapbox, HERE, or Vietmap, it allows businesses to build multimodal,
door-to-door route plans where ocean segments are handled by SeaRoutes.
This integration is especially helpful for freight forwarders, shipping companies,
NVOCCs, and logistics operators needing accurate sea-leg calculations for
quotations, planning, and optimization.
Key Features
- Ocean Routing via SeaRoutes
- Compute sea routes between ports and coastal coordinates.
- Retrieve realistic maritime distances and durations.
- Supports international and long-distance ocean transportation.
- Dedicated searoutes Provider for water Mode
- New provider record fully integrated with to_geo_routes.
- Works seamlessly within multimodal transport flows.
- Ideal for door-to-door and transshipment supply chains.
- Distance Matrix for Ocean Legs
- Build distance/duration matrices via repeated SeaRoutes API calls.
- Supports optimization engines and route comparison logic.
- Useful for evaluating alternative ports or service routes.
- Fully Integrated with to_geo_routes
- Reuses the unified routing abstraction layer.
- Works together with land-based providers (Google, HERE, Mapbox, Vietmap).
- Allows transparent use in fleet, logistics, planning, and VRP processes.
