roroph: Philippine Roll-on/Roll-Off (RoRo) Connectivity and Transport
Data
Provides the first standardized dataset of the Philippines'
Roll-on/Roll-off (RoRo) shipping network, reflecting the 2024-2026
operational state. It digitizes fragmented records from the Maritime
Industry Authority (MARINA) and Philippine Ports Authority (PPA)
into a unified framework for transport modeling. The package includes
108 bidirectional provincial links across the Western, Central, and
Eastern Nautical Highways, complete with GADM-standardized naming,
geospatial coordinates, and metrics such as distance, travel time,
and vessel frequency. Methodology follows Anselin (1988,
ISBN:9024737354) and LeSage and Pace (2009) <doi:10.1201/9781420064254>
for spatial weight construction. Data sources include "MARINA
Inventory of RoRo Routes" <https://marina.gov.ph> and "PPA Port
Statistics" <https://www.ppa.com.ph/ppa_statistics>. Designed to
support research in economic geography and disaster-response
logistics.
