Shipping concerns transport by sea, involving ships or vessels transporting people (passengers) and/or goods (cargo). Shipping may be for commerce, recreation, or for military purposes. Merchant shipping is the lifeblood of the world economy, carrying 90% of international trade with 102,194 commercial ships worldwide. | Shipping concerns transport by sea, involving ships or vessels transporting people (passengers) and/or goods (cargo).

Shipping Intensity is a month-by-month, computer generated data layer showing a 'heat map' of all ship traffic combined. The layer combines the [[(NS)Tanker Intensity|tanker]], [[(NS)Cargo Intensity|cargo]], [[(NS)Passenger Intensity|passenger]] and [[(NS)Ferry Intensity|ferry]] intensity heat maps together. Therefore this layer provides a complete overview of all simulated ship traffic within as well as in and out of the North Sea region. | |||
The shipping simulation follows this logic: | |||
* Month by month, [[(NS)Tanker Intensity|tanker]], [[(NS)Cargo Intensity|cargo]], [[(NS)Passenger Intensity|passenger]] and [[(NS)Ferry Intensity|ferry]] ships want to go from specific ports to specific ports, within as well as in and out of the North Sea region. | |||
* These ships find a safe yet short route for their travels. Ideally they move in a straight line. To ensure the route is safe, they will opt for deeper waters and designated [[(NS)Shipping Routes|shipping lanes]] applicable to their type. | |||
* More ships following the same route means a higher intensity of ships that month, and thus redder lines on the intensity 'heat map' layers. | |||
