Coherence - cross domain
Statistics on transport through major ports and minor ports are related since they include freight transport with other vessel type than ferries and passenger ships and they include passengers on cruises. The three statistics complement each other and provides a complete picture of passenger and freight transport by sea vessels in Denmark. They are published combined as maritime transport statistics.
Coherence - internal
The statistics consist of report from passenger and ferry lines that call upon Danish ports. With the exception of very few of the smallest routes all routes are included and answer same set of questions. Data are not combined with other sources. Thus no consistency problems arise between sources or in output.
