This dataset represents the provision of one twenty-foot equivalent unit (TEU) of transport service by container ships operating within a 1-kilometer distance in coastal/marine areas. The transport dataset covers the entire life cycle of transportation, including container ship production and maintenance, port construction, and energy use and operational emissions. The proportion of transport services provided by container ships of various capacities is reasonably extrapolated based on relevant national data on container ship capacity and freight turnover in coastal/marine regions, as well as literature and reference materials.
