Explore 3,804 seaports and 9,640 airports across 195 countries. Free details — depths, runways, UN/LOCODEs, IATA/ICAO codes, coordinates and more — built on official public-domain data.Two public-domain reference datasets covering the world's transport infrastructure. https://www.theportindex.online/data
honestly this looks super useful, especially for free. one thing that would make it way better is adding a simple map view, you know, so you can actually see where these ports and airports sit instead of just scrolling through lists. would help a lot when planning routes or just exploring nearby infrastructure.
Would love to see a quick distance and routing tool between any selected port and airport on the map, makes planning intermodal transfers way easier without jumping to a separate site.
The depth details for smaller harbors were a nice surprise, since most free sources skip those. Clean layout and the IATA/ICAO filtering actually works without lag.
love how clean the data tables are — everything you actually need (UN/LOCODE, depths, runway specs) laid out without the clutter you usually get on these transport sites. honestly impressive that it's all pulled from public-domain sources.
honestly looks really useful for logistics folks. one thing i'd love to see is a simple map view alongside the data so you can visually check where each port or airport sits, kind of like clicking a marker and seeing all the specs pop up. would save a lot of cross-referencing with other tools.
the fact that you pulled this together from public-domain sources and kept it free with proper UN/LOCODE and IATA references is genuinely useful for logistics research. clean layout, no clutter.
