Remarks

Furthermore, some remarks before the commencement of the world merchant fleet data exploration:

• These four dashboards will give detailed data and help explore the development of the world merchant fleet. However, the best way is to use desktop computer for the review of content of this post, otherwise on mobile screens, the graphs and tables will be too small and will not fit for the data exploration, even though the functionality of dashboards will remain the same.
• Generally, the internet browser often needs a bit of time to load the dashboards. It depends on the internet connection and time required by the browser to make connection with the Google data studio. 
• Besides, by using those two buttons below, you can adjust the size of dashboards for them to fit better in your screen. The appropriately adjusted dashboard will allow a lot easier data exploring.
• Size categories for ships are the same as in Equasis reports: 
  Small ships: GT<500 ; Medium ships: 500≤GT<25 000 ; Large ships:25.000≤GT<60 000; Very large ships: GT≥60 000
