How are the cargo containers on cargo ships organized?

Question

I.e. how are the positions determined and who determines them? And are they labeled or mapped in some way? For example, row 10 number 8 is x, row 11 numbers 1-5 are y, etc.

Apologies if this is the wrong flair. I couldn’t scroll to access the options.

I know they like to group all the ones that need to be kept cold together so the crew can monitor them.

As well they keep all the one that may be fire hazards together .

I would imagine they also like to keep the heavy ones low in the ship for balance.
