Danish AIS historical data

Daily zip archives (named by date) covering Danish waters, with monthly archives for earlier years and daily files from 2024-03-01 onward at roughly 600 MB compressed per day, published a few days after the data day. The source page states access is "continuously updated." No numeric retention limit, update-time guarantee or licence is stated on the page; access is governed by Denmark's public-sector-information (PSI) act, and the Danish Maritime Authority disclaims liability for errors, delays or interruptions in the data.
