Traffic density
1-15 16-30 31-100 101-300 301 and above

A traffic density map, developed by the National Maritime Research Institute, produced by means of calculating the number of vessels passing through a mesh of one minute of latitude by one minute of longitude in 2012 based on AIS information provided by a vessel information company. Colors are used to represent density levels; 1-15, 16-30, 31-100, 100-300, and 301 and above. Please note that the traffic density map does not illustrate the exact traffic volume of vessels equipped with AIS since some data may be lost by the condition of radio propagation and other technical reasons.
Fishing grounds/fishing methods
・Areas of fixed gear fishery right, demarcated fishery right or common fishery right designated by the Fisheries Agency.
・Major fishing grounds.
・Illustrations of fishing methods obtained from those who are engaged in fishing in the course of investigation.
・Other information related to fishing.
