So what is it?

Based on the description and README, this appears to be a single-file HTML tool that animates a sequence of monthly AIS density maps from the AMVER program, allowing users to visualize how vessel density changes over time. AIS (Automatic Identification System) is a tracking system used by ships at sea, and AMVER is a maritime reporting system. The README does not provide further detail about its features, controls, or specific data sources beyond the linked AMVER density plots page, so a complete explanation is not possible from the provided data alone.
