Import Performance Ocean Ports

Overview

This dataset provides insight into how efficiently ports are processing imports, including how performance has changed over time. It shows the average time from when a vessel arrives to when containers gate out for a look into end to end port processing.

Schema

Name	Description
EVENT_DT	The day in which the events recorded occurred
PORT_NAME	The name of the ocean port
PORT_UNLOCODE	The United Nations location code of the ocean port
PORT_CITY	City name of the ocean port
PORT_STATE	State/province name of the ocean port
PORT_COUNTRY	Country ISO code of the ocean port
PORT_REGION	The region of the ocean port
PORT_LATITUDE	Latitude of the ocean port
PORT_LONGITUDE	Longitude of the ocean port
N_BERTH_LOCATIONS	The number of berth locations a port has available for container vessels
SEVEN_DAY_PERFORMANCE	The container throughput performance for the 7 days prior to the event date. Calculated as avg_hrs_arrive_to_berth + avg_hrs_berth_to_disc + avg_hrs_disc_to_gtot
PRIOR_SEVEN_DAY_PERFORMANCE	The container throughput performance for the 8-14 days prior to the event date. Calculated as avg_hrs_arrive_to_berth + avg_hrs_berth_to_disc + avg_hrs_disc_to_gtot
PERFORMANCE_CHANGE_HRS	The change in hours for the total time of vessel arrival to out-gate events between the prior two weeks
PERFORMANCE_CHANGE	The percent change between seven_day_performance and prior_seven_day_performance
PERFORMANCE_CHANGE_FLAG	Indicates if an ocean port's performance has improved or degraded. This is based on the performance_change value
