A Clear View of Global Shipping Traffic

Global Shipping Traffic Density : this is an experimental visualisation made in Blender with all observed ship movement from 2015-2020, at 500 m resolution from IMF's World Seaborne Trade Monitoring System & also NASA‘s Black Marble satellite imagery. As you can see, the oceans and seas are transparent, creating a unique view that includes the other side of the globe.

London vs Star Destroyer
London vs Star Destroyer

London for scale:
Experimental visualisation of the Imperial I-class Star Destroyers as shown in A New Hope & Rogue One, for spatial reference above the City of London and the Thames. Reaching 1,600 meters (5,249 feet) in length, it is hard to imagine it's true size without real life imagery.

Made in Blender with edited Google Photorealistic 3D Tiles, 2024 and the stunning Starwars model by O. M. Schei Sunnevåg.

The risk of a Star Destroyer landing in London today is relatively low so this is only a tiny side project while I focus on building real risk digital twins for ScyAI.
