How this is measured
Vessels within 30 km of the harbor with an AIS position in the last 3 hours, counted at whichever watched port is nearest. In port is within 1.5 km of the harbor; waiting at anchor means the vessel has held its position in the approaches for 12 hours or more; everything else is in the approaches. Counts reflect what our receiver network observes.
