Strait of Hormuz weekly full transits (UKMTO)

Full transits of the Strait of Hormuz over the report's seven-day window, inbound and outbound, as published weekly by UK Maritime Trade Operations. UKMTO states these figures are AIS + DARK DERIVED, so they include vessels transiting without a usable AIS signal - traffic an AIS-derived count cannot see. These counts are NOT differenceable against the chokepoint activity series: the two use different transit definitions, geometry and observation windows, so subtracting one from the other does not measure dark traffic. meta.data_time carries the report's own observation date, and meta.stale is true when the newest stored report is already older than UKMTO's weekly publication cycle.
