Nearest port locator

Enter a position (decimal degrees or degrees-and-minutes). The page computes great-circle distance to every UN/LOCODE port in the dataset (~282 000 records) on the server and returns the closest few. Use this to find the nearest port of refuge, the nearest fuel-stop candidate, or to identify a position in a casualty report.
