A 0–100 demand-intensity index from dry-bulk / tanker port-calls over a lag-buffered 30-day window, shown against each segment’s latest rate (dry-bulk classes in $/day TC, tanker composites as the index level). Descriptive v1 — the demand map is shared within a market (cargo isn’t yet split by ship class at the port level) and ballast-distance-adjusted routing is a v2. Trend vs the prior 30 days.
