What's the significance of colour? (Green, Yellow, Red)?
Green for Eco-friendly or light-traffic?

What an amazing visualization! Your description says that this is based on actual data. So amazing. What kinds of tracking devices are used on the vessels? I have been looking into marine tracking systems for a bit and products from Gost Global, Garmin, and ACR come up a lot. Any recommendations?
