there is a line on the side of the ship, as the cargo is loaded the ship sinks deeper into the water, when the the reaches the water, they must stop loading.

That is the low tech method, nowadays with computers, shipping companies know down to the pound what has been loaded onto the ship. The computers are even smart enough to load containers that will be need first onto the top so they can be unloaded easier.
