METHODOLOGY

Numbered points are events, chronological within the issue window; closely co-located symbols are slightly displaced for legibility, true positions kept in the data. Positions derive from place names validated against a curated gazetteer; events below the geolocation confidence threshold are listed in the register without a plotted point. Named pipelines use public mapped alignments; maritime routes follow a public shipping network and are representative corridors, not live vessel tracks.
