== North sea edition ==
The MSP Challenge makes use of open source data sets, as specified below for each edition, mainly EMODnet ([https://www.emodnet.eu/ www.emodnet.eu)]), Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service, as well as governmental agencies that participated in the regions' corresponding projects.
 
The North Sea edition of the MSP Challenge Simulation Platform was developed under the umbrella of the NorthSEE project (2016-2019), (Interreg North Sea Region program of the EU-RDF); the Baltic Sea edition was developed under the umbrella of the Baltic LINes project (2016-2019), (Interreg Baltic Sea Region program of the EU-RDF); and the Clyde Edition was co-funded by the Scottish Government, Marine Scotland and the Scottish Coastal Forum through SIMCelt (2015-2018), (EU Directorate General for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries).

Revision as of 14:22, 13 January 2020

The MSP Challenge makes use of open source data sets, as specified below for each edition, mainly EMODnet (www.emodnet.eu)), Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service, as well as governmental agencies that participated in the regions' corresponding projects.

The North Sea edition of the MSP Challenge Simulation Platform was developed under the umbrella of the NorthSEE project (2016-2019), (Interreg North Sea Region program of the EU-RDF); the Baltic Sea edition was developed under the umbrella of the Baltic LINes project (2016-2019), (Interreg Baltic Sea Region program of the EU-RDF); and the Clyde Edition was co-funded by the Scottish Government, Marine Scotland and the Scottish Coastal Forum through SIMCelt (2015-2018), (EU Directorate General for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries).
