Insights
The 1.0 ledger stays compiled and provenance-aware. These channels sit beside it as observations: weather, waves, twilight, US tides, OSM places and ECB reference FX. None of them replace a chart, a harbour master or a rate card.
WorldTides is wired when WORLDTIDES_KEY is present. Remaining credits live on /admin. Stormglass and AISStream stay listed until a key exists.

What we did not wire
- AIS traffic density — needs AISStream or a sharing station.
- Stormglass as a second-source marine blend — needs its own key.
- NOTAM-style notices to mariners as a live feed — still national PDFs.
- Berth availability APIs — operators do not publish a common open feed.
