Coverage

Snapshot: 2026-10-24. The catalogue contains 3,807 WPI records and 10,402 admitted passenger-source records. These are catalogue records, not a certified count of distinct physical ports.

• OSM completeness is unestablished; accepted records are source-validated, not individually surveyed.
• Other OSM passenger tagging, such as ferry platforms without amenity=ferry_terminal, is not inventoried by this snapshot.
• Unnamed objects, non-point geometries and duplicate candidates require further reconciliation.
• Country containment uses Natural Earth map units; coastal points, small islands and disputed boundaries can remain unassigned.
• Ocean versus river cruise coverage is not independently classified or exhaustive.
• Antarctic visitor sites and private-island/tender destinations have partial reviewed coverage; their worldwide inventories remain incomplete.
• Operator destination labels do not necessarily identify individual terminals; no berth is inferred from an island or city.
