Hourly vessel-flow rollup for maritime chokepoints, derived from terrestrial AIS. Each row is one chokepoint·hour with vessel counts and average speed. Requires a plan with Maritime intelligence access (can_use_maritime) — the Corporate & Supply Chain plan and above.
Forward-accruing: signals begin at launch (June 2026) — there is no historical backfill. Derived-only: no raw position track is exposed. Terrestrial AIS only (no satellite). Date windows are capped at 30 days; defaults to the trailing 7 days when no dates are given.
