Methodology & Data Sources
This dashboard aggregates publicly available shipping and market data from carrier websites, maritime tracking services (Windward, MarineTraffic), insurance industry reports, and commodity pricing APIs.
Ship counts are lower bounds due to AIS degradation from vessels going dark and electronic warfare. Consumer impact estimates are illustrative scenarios based on transit time analysis and historical disruption analogues.
