Maritime Dynamic Traffic Generator. Volume III: Density Data on World Maps

Abstract

The 18,000 vessels whose weekly movements are tracked by the maritime traffic generator represent 106 different countries. There are 4915 vessels five or less years old. The record for the week of January 26, 1972 includes 11,789 arrivals, 10,896 departures, 10,843 vessels at sea and 4362 completed voyages.
