What's in the box

• Curated Port registry: ~100 sea ports across five regions, ~30 international cargo airports, ~30 rail freight terminals.
• Lookups: by UN/LOCODE (findPort / findPortStrict), by ISO country (findPortsByCountry), by PortType (findPortsByType), by name substring (searchPorts).
• Proximity: findNearestPort and findPortsInRadius (5°-bucketed PortSpatialIndex under the hood).
• Curated shippingLanes waypoint graph for the major sea, rail, and air freight routes.
• Lane distance (estimateLaneDistance, cumulativeDistances), lane projection (findPositionOnLane), and ETA estimation (estimateETA).
• 8-code typed error registry under the PORTS.* namespace via @suaveplan/error.
• Zod schemas for every public type under ./schemas/schemas.
• OpenTelemetry instrumentation: three counters and three histograms via ./otel/otel.

Quickstart

import {
    findPort,
    findNearestPort,
    getShippingLaneStrict,
    estimateETA,
} from "@suaveplan/ports";

const shanghai = findPort("CNSHA");
const nearestSea = findNearestPort({ latitude: 1.26, longitude: 103.82 });
const suez = getShippingLaneStrict("asia-europe-suez");
const eta = estimateETA(
    { latitude: 12.5, longitude: 43.3 },
    suez,
    14,
    { departureTime: new Date() }
);
console.log(eta.etaDate, eta.confidence);
