Shipping volume measures activity volume, source diversity, signal diversity, and materiality.

LLMs do not choose coordinates. V2 renders points in density-aware, spatially balanced highlight batches capped at 20 companies every three seconds; dense maps split into smaller batches when needed for readability." } }
