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.
