On this page you will learn about:
- The opportunity to create your own edition of MSP Challenge with the simulation platform
- Which geo data layers you would at least need for your own edition
- What other data you would need for the background simulations
New editions
An important function of the MSP Challenge simulation platform is enabling the development of different MSP Challenge editions, e.g. a North Sea edition or Baltic Sea edition. These editions revolve around a particular sea basin, incorporating different real-life (geo) data and simulations to allow users to experience MSP within that sea region.
This means that the platform is ready to host any sea basin in the world. While that might suggest that it's quick and easy to set up a new edition, it does require technical expertise, and there are a number of requirements that need to be met. This page offers information about those requirements so you can get an idea of what's involved.
We note that the requirements below are based on the assumption that you would want an edition that is more or less the same in data and functionalities as the existing North Sea or Baltic Sea editions. Of course that assumption might not be correct. You might want something else entirely. The simulation platform can incorporate any geo dataset (shape file or raster) that fits common GIS standards, including datasets that aren't used in the North or Baltic Sea editions at all. Moreover, the current shipping, energy and ecosystem simulations are interchangeable, as they are separate stand-alone applications. We are looking forward to researching and developing interconnections with other (kinds of) simulators too.
