contents We prove semicontinuity properties for local positivity invariants of big and nef divisors. The usual definition of Seshadri constant and asymptotic order of vanishing along a subvariety is extended to include all seminorms in the Berkovich space, and we obtain semicontinuity of such constants as a function of the center seminorm. We use Shokurov's language of b-divisors; to each seminorm there is an associated b-divisor which can be used to translate questions about positivity into questions about the shape of certain cones of b-divisors. The theory works especially well for what we call b-divisorial valuations, a natural extension of the notion of divisorial valuations which encompasses, e.g., all Abhyankar valuations.
