Limits

  • Cruise ships are those Voydar lists on /cruise-ships: ships operated by a listed ocean or expedition cruise line (Wikidata or a cited editorial record), plus ships Wikidata types as cruise ships.
  • Coastal express services such as Hurtigruten call at many small ports daily and weigh heavily in the counts.
  • A call is a stop of at least 30 minutes inside a port's geofence, observed on AIS; tender calls at anchor outside a port are not counted.
