AIS: Weekly Port Calls

The dashboard is a collaborative initiative between the UN Statistics Division, the Environmental Change Institute at the University of Oxford within the context of the AIS Task Team work programme. It aims to monitor weekly port calls from around 1200 ports based on AIS datasets available at the UN Global Platform. This data can be used as a proxy to measure the impact of any disruptions (including COVID-19) to economic activities because only ships contributing to economic activities are included in the port calls.
