Abstract
In September 2008, the BBC began a project to illustrate a typical shipping container´s journey around the globe to provide a snapshot of world trade. The Box, as it´s called, is fitted with a GPS transmitter that sends its position back to the broadcaster´s website to allow anyone who logs on to track its progress.
