Arrivals, time in port and cargo operations detected from AIS — the position-inferred congestion signal, with the full dwell distribution rather than a single average.
Vessels underway broadcasting a destination that resolves to this port, closest first. Distance is the real sea route (around land and through canals). Off port is steaming time at the vessel’s passage speed; alongside adds the wait this port has actually kept comparable ships for. Berth waits vary far more than they average, so read the queue as typical, not promised. The crew’s own reported ETA is shown alongside for comparison.

Network
How central Riga sits in the sea-route network we cover — a connectivity score across navigable distances. A higher score means the port is navigationally close to many other well-connected ports, the maritime signature of a hub.
Directly routable to 349 other covered ports.
Method. A connectivity score across our own route network: a port reads higher when it is navigationally close to many other well-connected ports. The score is rescaled 0–100 within the snapshot, so the single most-connected port reads 100. Distances are Suez / Panama / Malacca-aware navigable sea miles.
Coverage. The route network spans the 350 largest commercial ports, so this ranks hubs within that covered network, not against every port on earth. The number is deterministic — no confidence grade is invented. Computed Aug 27, 2026.
